Which 3s pack?
 

I am in the market for a 3s pack for my Slash. I want the best I can get for my money. Here are my 3 options. Which one would you get and why?

1. http://www.rc-monster.com/proddetail...pq3s6000mah25c

2. Thunder Power TP5000-3SP30 Li-Poly Battery In Stock $164.99
11.1V 5000mAh (3 cells) Pro Power Series

3. Poly RC PQ-5000XQ-3S Li-Poly Battery In Stock $132.29
11.1V 5000mAh (3 cells) 30C/60C

go with PolyQuest lipo from RCM:
1- 6000mah (more run time)
2- 25C (150A) continuous, 40C (240A)
3- support RCM store :)

remember to check the size to make sure the lipo will fit your car before order :)

Last time I checked, Mike didnt have his packs in a 3S config.

oh sorry I mean PolyQuest pack

Sorry again

Any idea what packs in 3s will fit the Slash?

all of those listed will fit.

You'll want something ~28mm thick or less if you want to easily use the stock battery bar. 25mm is the max without using spacers under the rear bar hold down and unscrewing the front a couple of turns.

From a fitment perspective, I like the size of the PolyRC 3S 25C 4350mAh. http://rclipos.com/PolyRC25C.htm

The thickness I am not worried about so much. I am going to be fabricating two velcro straps into my stock battery tray and get rid of the battery hold down.

IIRC both of those are Enerland based cells, so essentially the same battery. Go with the cheaper selection. But also look into Neu batteries, also enerland but are generally on the lower end price wise.

Found a Neu 5000mah 3s car pack for $111
