Is that a brick, or stick pack?

I finally found that Sticky you were talking about Brian... SuicideNiel did a great job on that one, thumbs up man!

I've tried running A123 cells in e-revo in all kinds of configurations. No go, unless you want to strap them in somehow without using the doors.

i use 2s 2p a123 in my e-revo and the only thing i done was put some spacers between screws compartment boxes and boxes..
fit good, run great eaven being only 13.2 volts and durable and stable as a rock!!
i don´t exchange mine for lipos......

He probably meant dual 2s2p, which would be 13.2v...

K well what all does a person need then to convert the normal revo 3.3 to BL e-revo? I know I need the chassis, what about the transmission (i want that), battery covers?, receiver box... does Mike carry any of this stuff?

Could I get a little shopping cart list of things I will need, just put in your two cents/knowledge....

But what I know is when yer all grown up you gotta do illegal $#@! once in a while and have little bita fun and machurinate into a better person... and you know you're thoughts might be better than mine, but I have thoughts goin around in my head too about different thinkins and brain things you can use and doin different things... so F#$K off, and I think I know whats best for my daughter, and my thoughts and feelings of there own sometimes....

yes. i mean 13.2v at 4600mah.
is more then enough for small or regular tracks.
i run this cells with my hobbywing combo with 2350kv motor geared for 40mph.
is more then enough to smoke nitros if you know what i mean!!
i don´t think for a e-revo is needed more voltage and power then that, maybe more run time for packs!!
i run the car in this setup for 3 months with sucess without any thing break!!
the cells fit the compartments perfectly in size and is 4 cells for each pack wired in paralel and connect in series.

you are what you race!!

mah... 4s2p would be okay i guess, considering it's 2300kv motor (how big BTW?)

I have had my Revo since fall of 2007 I haven't broke anything either... except for suspension arm, my fault.

My Revo running 7s1p and 7s2p packs running 1512 Neu(1700kv) has plenty of power (~1300watts) and agility with the 1p pack... the 7s2p has noticeably more power(2500watts...theoretical) and punch but I don't like the feel of it compared to the 1p pack... too heavy and not as agile.

Well I made an 8s A123 pack and it doesn't work with the Quark... I plug it in and turn the switch, it makes an alarm beeping sound (obviously for over-voltage protection)

Well, I think I am going to get either some flightpower EON X30's, or the ThunderPower 40C packs... I am thinking more towards the TP packs however just because of the best voltage holding ability. I am sure they are both good choices.

I just need the E-revo chassis now...
