martin34 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Modelsport has the 4500 7 cells powertech batteries with traxxas connectors in stock.I dont know of anywhere else in the uk that do batteries with traxxas connectors already fitted.I am going to go for the vapextech 8.4v 4600's for my e-maxx.they dont come with traxxas connectors but its prity easy to fit the traxxas ones.I have never done any soldering in my life but i managed to fit them after watching the video on the traxxas web site.

Ash1984 Posted August 24, 2008 Share Posted August 24, 2008 Get yourself on eBay and look up 'Vapextech' and choose a pack that suits you, I use the seller 'componentshop' and have had no bother http://stores.ebay.co.uk/component-shop_Ra...6QQftidZ2QQtZkm Then get yourself a couple of female TRX connectors and solder them on, or if you are really scared/inept or dont have the gear get someone who is savvy and has the kit to do it (a soldering iron and solder!!!!!!)

Ash1984 Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Looks like they can make up any configuration you want....quoting from their listings..... 'We also offer a custom build service, so please ask if you can't find the lead or pack you need advertised.
