this... isnt great. it sits "too high" (because it rests at the height of the dual posts on the side gaurds) to give me confidence in its ability to secure a batter as shallow or shallower than a protek 4800. its also "too wide" by about 3mm so my lipos shift front to back, and there is no adjustment mechinism to "pinch" the holder to keep the lipo from shifting. if you use larger lipos (maybe for mod?) it may be a tighter fit, but for 4800mah and smaller, its sort of a non-starter, and even then....idk. the build quality and materials are nice, but otherwise I wont be able to use this :/
Just got this for my T6.4, fit is great and this is one sturdy battery mount. Much prefer the O-rings style, over the stock AE battery hold down. It doesn't hurt that it adds some carbon bling either.
Sits slightly further foreward 1-2mm than the PSM mount and easier to get the bands off and on. I would recommend vision over psm but both do the job well
It’s great I got it for the buggy I don’t know if it’s actually lighter than the stock battery holder but it is sooo much more convenient to take the battery out
the battery hold down set works perfectly on my Team associated B6.4 and it fits like a glove . highly recommended
Reviews are mixed. Four of five reviewers, including owners of T6 and B6.4 chassis, report good fit, sturdiness, and easier battery access with O-ring style bands, with one noting a slightly more forward position than a PSM mount. One reviewer, who uses a shallow 4800mAh-class battery, reports that the holder sits too high and is about 3mm too wide, allowing batteries to shift front to back, with no adjustment to pinch the battery. That reviewer says build quality and materials are good. Reviews do not cover weight savings, durability over time, or fit on the Schumacher Laydown chassis.
