They appear to be 2s lipos. There are 3 balance wires coming out of the pack. $95 sounds like a good deal to me. Aren't the neu cells the same as the flightpower/trakpower cells?

Thanks for the help Skellyo :yes: . I ordered two yesterday so in about 2 weeks I will get them. I think I will call Neu and find out what kind of taps are on the batteries so I can get what I need on order to.

Serum said they were as good as Flightpower.

From Neu's site

Wher did you get the quote from Finnster??

I would be interested in these battery's because, they have external plug wires. that way i could use deans plugs, instead of the internal bullet connectors.

plus you can drop them into any molded chassis. Not like any of you avid custom builders care... hehe. But its good for me though, since I still run 1/10th scale buggies and on-road.

Most lipos over 4000mah are 160mm+ in length which makes them a no go for most molded chassis'. This one will drop right in, just like a standard 6-cell nimh.

Still waiting on my batts. One week down, one more to go. can't wait to get them.

This is my first try at using Li-Po's. I am going to bug these nice folks here on the forums So I won't mess everything up and destroy $190 batteries. I almost destroyed my Quark 125B. But I had an :angel: with me that day.

I ordered 2 of these yesterday and got a notification in my e-mail today that they are shipping out. I hope to see them next week.

I also ordered 2 last night. now I should be set for 10th scale truck, just need to get a saddle pack for a b44.

:yipi: Got mine in today! :yipi:

sadly my hyperion tabs don't fit like the guy from diveristy told me... they look like TP tabs to me. can any of you guys confirm this?

I just went ahead and bought a tp and align adapter set to cover all the bases. I figure, I'll be using lipos for a long time to come. I might as well have all the major adapters give me options.

As far as tabs go, for balancing i just use the astroflight blinky to balence my packs... its a tight fit but works just fine.

i must say im overly impressed by my batteries because they are just so great. i ran a 25 min main this saturday at revelation in Socal and they didnt get past 100 Degrees (cant say the same for my motor and speed control ^_^ 155 degrees on both) but it didnt thermal or show any signs of slowing down so i just kept on driving. I almost ejected the lipos though when i cased a landing, the lipos shot forward out of the heatshrink... im so glad they didnt puncture... so close call O_o

Thanks mwry13. If the adapters I bought don't work, I'll look into buying one of those... but I doubt I will need too.

I have been able to run these a little... about 5 minutes or so. I didn't want a full run until I have the proper charging harness. I have to say, its a noticable improvement from my old MA packs. I am very impressed.

WHAT THE.........
I just received 2 of the hard-cased 5000 mah neuenergy batteries and they are labeled as 20C cont and 40c burst.... Is that the same as the ones you received?

Ok this is impressive. This is the first time I e-mailed a company and received a reply from a real person in 2 minutes flat. Neu says:
"Jonathan,

There must have been a mistake in the shipping department. They are mislabled. Sorry about that."



I feel much better now!!
