my lipos that i run in my trucks are the 5000mah tunigy softcase lipos and they are slightly wider than the standard sub c packs. im just wondering if anyone else had come across a similar problem and how you overcame it. i could easily rig something but i do not want to drill any holes in the chassis that wernt original.

Nothing for wider packs, most are slightly longer than the Nicads were back in the day and we just drill 2 new holes in front of the existing ones-

New to the lioo piece and I’ve got a question. I recently picked up a zeee 5000 mah 100c 2s battery. I’ve also picked up a cellmeter-7 digital battery capacity checker. It lists one cell at .033v and the other at 7.54.

This cannot possibly be...

Lipo's are very easy and nothing to worry about with a decent charger and once you know how to use them. 99.9% of lipo disasters are from neglect or improper use.

Is it safe to charge a lipo pack that is already run down some, or do I need to discharge it compleatly first? Also what is the best way to store them, and is there any maintence to do to them while in storage? Winter is coming and I'm not sure what...

Just store them fully charged, and remember to charge them every few months.

forgive my dumbness lol, i know little about lipos really, seems like 5k mah for under 100 would be good, but is there like a drawback to this pack as opposed to a pack for $169?

I tested the link and it is still good. I'd double check the measurements because it's an old (and one of my many unpopular :lol: ) post, but this should fit nicely. :wink:

Only reason, I saw a $130 pack about 2 weeks old swell and crap out because of lack of balancing. Not an abused pack either. It was in the care of one of...
