These batteries run for quite awhile. Picked some up for the kids rc's so I don't have to worry about or monitor their LIPO handling. We also have a 7-cell nimh from Ecopower that works great as well. I even enjoy using nuimh sometimes because you can just keep charged on hand for instant playing and then not have any lipo balancing for storage mode afterwards etc.after driving. Life gets busy so options are great!
Been Around Rc (Planes, Cars, Boats) For Many Years and bottom line, LIPO Batteries are Expensive, Delicate and dangerous. I Can Get a hour of Drive Time with The NiMh batteries in the Fazer Cars, So Why risk it... The Cars even Drive better with the heavier battery..
Great battery pack. No problems. Long life. Using it for off road trails and touring car.
