. I ran them in the 811 2.0 buggy before, but only ran them for 15min and they only used 5250mah so you could get easy 20 min

What batteries would you guys recommend buying for my 1/8 scale buggy?

Has anyone tried out the maxamps batteries, I hear they are pretty good.

I race the GENS ACE 5000mAh 50C 7.4V Hardcase Lipo Battery on my 1/8 scale buggy and last me about 20 mins of running time.

. That's pretty good run time, what's the temps on the battery's after you run that long? how long does it take to charge back up? And what amp do you charge them at?

It usually takes from 60-90 mins to charge.

that's one reason to never run lipos that long. it takes mine 35 min at 10amp to charge fully. 5 min more for twice the charge isn't worth it in my books. Plus your usin up the life of the battery

Good point and A Main races are only about 10 min long. You don't need that much running time.

How many charges does an VANT battery give you? I run the Pro-Match batteries and they give me about 20-30 charges.
