I use a 1700mah battery for my ezstart. On sunday it lasted me pretty much the whole day. Today on full charge, it lasted me about 15 min...but I wanna mention I was trying to start my tmaxx for 15 min. Is that how fast the tmaxx will drain a battery trying to start it? I'm just wondering if there's somethign wrong with my battery.
 
If it started normally, running all day wouldn't require 15 minutes of cranking.
Trying to get a stubborn engine to start can really eat up the power.
If that same battery was turning the electric motor in an Emaxx, 15 minutes is good run time.
 
Also, do u fully discharge ur battery before u charge it up again? If you dont do this that type of battery can be ruined, and it wont hold a full charge.
 
ya it is always a good idea to discharge the batt. also after it has been charged, or discharged it will some times be warm and u should let it cool down for a while.
