.AJ. Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 They are only 3.3v per cell so you lose a bit of voltage and motor rpm if you use them instead of Lipos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aterlatus Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 On the plus side, they're much more robust taking bigger charging currents and aren't as liable to go bang if out of balance. Given the relative expense compared to LiPo, most people stick with them for now though. Time will tell if LiFe takes off or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 (edited) i used to run life rx packs in my Muggy, with the extra voltage over a nimh stick pack it gave my servos a bit more punch Edited December 29, 2010 by AJ Roberts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin34 Posted December 29, 2010 Author Share Posted December 29, 2010 ok thanks guys.I will stick to Lipo for now and see if Life get a better reputation in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 i think life will be come the future, but 3S Life will have to be the norm (9.9V) 2S isn't going to be enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
