I feel battery weight is just as important as its voltage or c-rating. Heavy packs make for more rollovers. I've found that 2200 40c Gens Ace are plenty of pack for anything less than a full out WOT all the time basher. You can turn up the punch control thru castle link to lower maximum amperage draw and keep from overstressing the smaller-than-castles-reccomended batteries.
The 2200's are small and light enough to carry spares in your pocket, are fairly cheap, and fit most crawlers.
I would not consider anything less than 1500mah when paired with a healthy brushless.
I'm not really worried about weight since it's going to be a heavy hardbody scaler.
Good to know I can do that, because I would like to be able to run my 25C 2S's
I would opt for #2, I really like the idea of a two + hour run time. On amazon you can find some good deals.
Yeah, that's where I'm at too. Amazon has good deals, but I have to go to eBay since Amazon won't ship them. eBay has good deals too.
