Well, can I use these:

CBP2500A
Chemistry: NIMH
Capacity: 2500mah
Length: 1.95in. 49.53mm
Diameter: 0.66in. 16.76mm
Weight: 1.35oz. 38.25gm

or these:

GP2000AFHR
Chemistry: NIMH
Capacity: 2000mah
Length: 1.68in. 42.67mm
Diameter: 0.66in. 16.76mm
Weight: 1.23oz. 34.85gm

Or these:

HR1950FAUP
Chemistry: NIMH
Capacity: 1950mah
Length: 1.68in. 42.67mm
Diameter: 0.7in. 17.78mm
Weight: 1.4oz. 39.67gm

Sorry I can't get voltage on these cells tho...

I want a high-capacity RX pack for those long bashing runs, or days at the track. (I have chargers and stuff, I just hate having to charge them)

Once again you fail to give enough info.
What is it going in?

Are you using a stock battery holder?

I think he's talking about putting this in a t-maxx, given where it is. If so, I'd try to make it as close to a venom hump pack as possible.

 

[cvec7]

No, not in a t-maxx, just a hump pack or flat pack. And, I don't quite see how I didn't give enough info, I just wanted to know if they were fine for a RX pack, or if they had too much juice or w/e.

The 2500's woud be the best option in a high current draw situation as they will last longer. As for voltage, as long as you work within the voltage handling ability of the receiver you can use anything you feel comfortable with.

I have known people use a 7.5 volt battery pack like those used on Tamiya kits, however, the only issue was always over the weight of the cells and where to place them for good balance of the vehicle you run it with.

Hope this helps, its only what i have seen done and from past personal experience aswell.

Capacity really is not an issue, other than the size factor. What I mean is that you can have as much MAH as size allows.

Just make sure that it will fit wherever you decide to put it.
