New batteries for SCT

[DavidB1126]

Current old SMC ones are getting a bit puffy so wanting a new pair. Looking at the CHNL combos. Using in my slash. Which mah is your preference?

5600
6600
7600
8000

My current SMCs are 7200 if I'm right and they got some amazing run time. For bashing atleast.

Or, would the LiHV "Racing series" be better? My con is that they don't offer them in combos.

The extra voltage won't really be that noticeable for just bashing. The higher mAh will though.

is this just to bash with or will they be used for racing?.if bashing does it matter.if racing Id get the smallest lipo that will finish the race and be able to do the warmup laps ..

Got em

50 bucks. Imo the best for the price packs.

6600mah 120C. Super light.

Those are the same CNHL packs that I've been using for my SCT410SL. Running the snot out of the motor, I can get a good 17 minutes from a 6600mAh pack before 3.4v LVC kicks in. I'm sure they will give you great run times on you Slash.

How old are your SMC packs that you show?

Uncle got them in 2017. Used them for bout 2 years in his SCTE. Sat in storage till 2022 and then gave them to me. So almost 9 yrs old. They had a nice long life.

7200 mah. They could last me 30 minutes plus of my regular bashing.
