how many
 
I was just wondering how many 9 volt batterys a xmod can handle becuase i've heard that its only like 7.5 volts or something low like that so if you have heard of anyone using 9 volt batterys let me know how many you can use

no 9v just dont try it it will fry your fets in a heartbeat

even if it could the 9v wont last but maybe 5 minutes. the Mah is just way low compared to 4 AAA's

max board voltage is 8.4 peak. that means 1 9volt by itself will burn your electronics. and your car will be no faster even if it didn't, because 9-volts are not high-drain batteries. stick to AAA's and liths

what about AA's how do they compare to AAA's?

XMDrifter 05-06-2011 08:05 PM

if you want to use AA's, you'll need a much bigger space under your car to fit them. they are very large in comparison to xmods, so with the extra weight, i don't believe is worth it.

agreed^

plus, they produce the same amount of volts, the just have a higher capacity

higher capacity= longer run times

anybody ever used any of these batterys before?

I like to use the Powerex Batteries. Plus their chargers are awesome.

This one is better because it tells u the battery capacity.

Batteries I like the Powerex batteries but they are kind of expensive, so I use the Tenergy from http://www.all-battery.com/ They are cheap and high capacity, at this price they are easy to replace when they go bad.

For larger scale rc I like the stuff from hobbypartz.

Good luck

pimp32 05-07-2011 08:53 AM

those seem pretty expensive are they woth the price

just get yourself a nice set of R1 Wurks, they are the best batteries you can get for you miniz/xmod hands down, period.
