    Is this Lipo safe to use?

    Hey everyone, I just pulled the battery pack out of my Granite and I've noticed the front is a little deformed. Is this pack safe to use? The damage is quite minimal, or at least it seems to be the case.

    Prophet Sport Mini charger is not working all of a sudden.

    Battery Quality, Best Choice

    All my lipo batteries, both 2s and 3s, are venom batteries. I'm wondering if that's a good choice? They work great and have been durable but I'm wondering if I'm paying for the name so to speak? I jump my vehicles constantly and run them hard. Also does the c rating really matter? My 100c...

    Portable charging solution

    Out of boredom today I decided to make a portable lipo charger, you know, in the event your RC doesn't break down before you run all your lipo's. I have an abundance of Milwaukee m18 18v batteries, and I 3d printed a power adapter (or buy one off of Amazon for $15). Works quite well, I can...

    Lately if I have the time, I go through three packs a day [3S 5200]. One in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening. I alternate between my two vehicles with each pack. How about you?

    Senton 2s or 3s

    I'm just curious, obviously most people have more than one battery but do you have a 2s and 3s and what's the reason for each. Of course the 3s is faster but should I have 2 or 3 3s packs or throw a 2s in the mix?
