Hello, anyone heard of these batteries? if so are they ok or crap?
vapextech 12v 3700nimh £21.45 each
Capacity : 3700mAh
Weight : 668g
Measured at 740mA (0.2C) discharge.
Max Discharge Current : 30,000mA (30 Amps)
Max Charge Current : 3500mA
or anyone heard of Tornado packs? wondered if their are any cheaper options to Sanyo that will give an ok performance
thanks
if they are the yellow ones off ebay I have not had good luck with them. I bought several 6v packs a while back but found they couldnt power two gold motors. I have heard of other people having better luck with them though.
If this is for your spinner then I recommend getting as high spec batteries as you can. There is no point in building an incredible piece of weaponry but then not providing it with the power it needs to run.
I use the Sanyo RC 2400 12v Sub C NiCad packs in hornet (2 in series) and cannot recommend them highly enough. Able to take a hell of a lot of high current abuse from my mag and my bad battery care from meand they still run fine.
no, i have already purchased by new batteries for the spinner, but stumbled across these and would want them for drive motors.
I use them in J.A.B.O.W. seem to work ok up till Gary sorted it!!!
I bought two of them (9.6V ones) to power the drive and weapon for Drumroll; havent charged them up yet though (not got a suitable charger) and havent had a chance to test them with the drum motors (two HTIs from RMP) so I dont know what theyll be like but I hope theyll perform sufficiently.
On the modelforum in Holland most people agree these cells are good value for money, and a fair quality.
I have no personal experience with them, but i know the people that have posted these findings are reliable.
They Are Great Value i used them in Dizzy Powering The mag for the disc not a problem just such a draw on current didnt quiet last the 3mins for the fights
I presume that was before the unfortunate incident at the Space Centre earlier this year Pete!
(or was that another set?)
no that was another set these are safley stored in shanes robot they were old and disposable (well disposed off )
you get my mail geoff ?
Yep, did get it Pete, Ill talk to you at Maidstone if thats OK.
Geoff.
