New Brushless With Some Issues

[coolhandcountry]

I have got three runs in a day on a set of nimhs. They still hold a good charge and stuff. I do give them time to cool and gather itself before tortured again.

Mine certainly don't like being cycled twice in a day, might just be cos they're a bit old though.

I don't cycle like I used to either. :D I think it is cause I am getting old. ;)

Well, the problem is, my batteries have always been really short on the second run ever since one cell exploded which is why I'm running 13 cells. They did it in my brother's Villain IVX(The IV with EX equipment) too. Since about July, I have ran about 2 runs on them almost everyday. Except when something would break and I would have to wait a week before I could drive again. They are pretty well worn, now that I think about it. I'm gonna try to get some more from Radio Shack or Ebay. I was wondering if I should buy 3 6-cell GP3300's from RS and fix my 6-cell into a 7-cell and 2 of the new 6-cells into 7-cells and be left with three cells, or buy some front CVDs on Ebay? I'm kinda leanin' toward the batteries, as I only have one set and could really do with another, but that's $75 down the drain, and my parents aren't really thrilled to hear me wanting to spend more money after getting brushless:rolleyes:.
I noticed that after my batteries were shorted out, the cells on the ends read 1.18v, while the cells in the middle read about 1.2-1.22v. Is this bad or will they spring back up? Gee I hope I didn't hurt them, else my wallet will be light enough to take a couple people to the moon:026:!
LOL, Coolhand:005:...
I'm off for another run, right after the batts are done(lol, it rhymes).

Later,
Brijar!!!
