Yes and no... it works and it gives your motor a butt load of extra power but it also shortens the life of your motor as these little motors aren't really designed to run at 9volts for an extended period of time....

[amorton94]

does it run just run of the 9volt? or both the 9volt and the 4.8 from the car? (question added to first post)

[XMDrifter]

it reaches a certain voltage, then the relay switches the motor to the 9 volt source, the board still runs from the regular voltage, but the motor gets boosted.
you could make one for 10 bucks if you wanted. just search for the $10 nitrous tutorial

[amorton94]

ok but does anyone know anything about those batteries?

[TheB1GDude]

What batteries??

The NOS kit uses any old 9v square battery, the car uses either liths or a 5 or 6 cell, you don't get enough current from 4 cells to trip the switch....

[EDIT] I'm sorry I missed your battery link the first time around! Those Tenergy batteries are the sames ones I use and I'm really impressed with them, I stopped bothering with liths for all but my top cars because these batteries are so good! They own the RS rechargeables!!
