Just tried the 3V Camera Battery...Holy Crap !!!!!!!
 

This son of a buck is fast.
Its got the 2.2 in it and its more than twice as fast with the 3V Lithium Camera Battery.
I will definatly be doing a rechargeable 3V setup cause these buggers will freaking move.

3v LI camera battry??? how much , where can i get it?

heh ive been using those since day one :D
they also make your car last slightly longer on one charge

they cost about 5$ or so depending on where u get them

Where can you get 3v lithium rechargeables at?

where can i get it and how can i recharge it?

radio shack and walmart have them...
for some reason i couldnt find them at food stores...*shrug

hey, aren't the 3v lithium camera battery too long for the chasis??? how did you get it to fit?

the battery i have (from radio shack) is about 2 centimeters shorter than the stock battery

well i dont know if its 2 centimeters cause i dont know from numbers but its about 4/5ths or 5/6ths the size of the stock battery

I'll take a picture tonight

Part number!!! :) There should be a 'catalog' number on the battery packaging, usually the upper right hand corner. Should be a 2 or 3 digit number, then a dash (-) then another number.. I forgot what the first 2 or 3 digits of the cat number is for batteries but I think it's 270?

good idea, ill get the part number too.
I wont be home till 12 or 1 thou so more waiting :(

Yes but how do you recharge them? Does the duel bat charge mod http://tinyrc.com/qfm/racing/mod_07.htm#26 work?

What about charge time? how long are those bats going to last (how many charges)...

Sketch

i dont even know if the Lithium Camera Batteries are rechargable.

Does anyone know?????

I hope they are, I plan on making a plug-in bit charger so thats what ill use to juice it.

heres the battery i used
