are these batteries good?
 
hey everone, i was just wondering if these batteries are good or not.

http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMDK1&P=7

they already come with deans and 12 gague wire. would these be a good

upgrade for my 8 cell GP3300's that i made?

It doesn't say what cells are used. But, it does state an 80amp continuous discharge, which suggests that this pack most likely uses good cells. That's nice that it does use battery bars and not thin nickel strips...

would these cells handle a 1940/7 or a wanderer 7xl?:032:

MetalMan 06.06.2006 10:39 PM

They should.

Could they possible be IB3600's?

What would that 8C mean....?

coolhandcountry 06.07.2006 09:51 AM

My guess would be 8 cells.

I don't see anywhere in the description where it says 8C. Where are you seeing that?

coolhandcountry 06.07.2006 10:02 AM

In the pic it says it on the battery pack.

"Great Planes ElectriFly 8C 9.6V 3600mAh NiMH Dean Ultra"

That is the product name at the top of the page.

Serum 06.07.2006 05:14 PM

I don't like the 8C part.. I would let them go..

squeeforever 06.07.2006 05:20 PM

8C means 8 cells I'm pretty sure. I have seen it many times refer to how many cells and not the discharge rate.

Serum 06.07.2006 05:22 PM

Could be an explanation, but the C term is somewhat confusing IMO

MetalMan 06.07.2006 06:46 PM

Yes, it is. Some companies just don't get it, even though they sell Lipos...

Duh! I completely missed that.

coolhandcountry 06.07.2006 07:58 PM

Well if it is 8c why they say 80 amps continous. That don't fit. I think they refering to the amount of cells in it.

cemetery gates 06.07.2006 09:39 PM

8c = 8 cells. that makes the most sense to me.

Sylvester 06.07.2006 10:26 PM

Same here, dont think the money towerhobbies has it up there for is enough to have 3600mah cells at an 8C discharge rate.
