Maybe with the next battery purchase ill try these. I'm bit worried that with low cost comes higher risk of accidental fires... Thats why I recommended them, the price.

I tend to ignore all the cheap things since they are cheap for a reason - true for everything, need to test it on lipos 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 (edited) To be fair they’re ridiculously high MAH, the highest I own are 8000mah, but I usually run 5500mah. I only go out for 20 minutes ish per vehicle. Id rather have a lot of smaller, cheaper lipo’s than have 1 set of big MAH ones. The others are Spektrum Smart, which is just nonsense in my opinion and for people with more money than sense.

Tadas Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 (edited) I bet there are many SkyRC fans/users here. Just got mine and tested (battery meter) brand new lipos. Red the instructions several times, but could't find any info on what does the red numbers mean? I guess its bad? Is this function trustworthy? P.S. never expected that it would be this hard to unplug balance plugs from the charger, i could barely do it with my fingers... Maybe its just because its new? Or i have bought siht extension cables? Edited January 11 by Tadas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfie1 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Leave the extensions plugged in and plug your batteries into the extensions, saves creating potential issues with the charger and if ever there is an issue with the plug on the extension with getting plugged in and out a lot you just bin it and buy a new extension 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tadas Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 So far i'm very happy with my SkyRC T1000!! It charges way faster than traxxas original charger: from storage to full [2x8500mAh] in 34mins 🥰 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
