What truggy as a basher?

[Thirdgen89GTA]

mine are going on 2 years, charge them once a week before u hit the track. Lighter and less headaches

Two stick packs make for 14.4v @ 3300mah. A single gel cell is 12v @ 7,000mah and holds a constant load much better. It would take 24 sub-c cells (4 stick packs) to equal the capacity of a single gel cell and provide the voltage needed to turn the motor over.

Sure, its got more ump, but its only 2.4v more than a gel cell at half the capacity when using 3300mah packs. It won't last as long.

Stick packs are lighter, but weight doesn't bother me, I'm not carrying it all the time. Just to the car, and back.
