4 cell zz
 
i was wonderin if anyone knows how many cells the zz can handle b/c i was thinkin of putting 4 cells in it

Steve 11-09-2002 08:19 PM

it's not the cells, but the voltage...I've heard it could potentially take 12 volts, and I've seen them run on 9volts, but umm...don't you want to able to drive it?

so i could run 2 batts at 2.8 volts thru my board and motor in my zip and it wouldnt hurt it?

except there will be someone that uses 5 that will beat you. And there will be someone that uses 6 that will beat them. And there will...

no one else knows how ta solder so ill probly be the one with the 5 bat then the 6 bat then the 7 bat then ill be broke but hey its worth it

but then someone will buy about 60 1.5 alkaline calculator batterys that he got on sale for 27 cents each that are about 1/12 the size of the zip batt. an weigh about 1 gram
then stick about 6 of em in there, make a lil cash money bet on a drag race, an walk away with some xash money in his pocket

go_zz_go 11-10-2002 09:39 PM

yeah but then i will tell my mom

come on guys be real

... actually, my drag-racing battery packs are made of 4 1.5v watch batteries...

:)

turtle 11-11-2002 12:48 PM

really u could fit 6 bats in?

Lucid Dreams 11-11-2002 07:45 PM

actually if i took the zip batt. out of the chasis
i could fit around 15-20 of the little battery's i bought in it
wouldnt last long but i jus need em for one run

joeNuggetz 11-12-2002 04:28 PM

How do you guys even get any traction using 2 or more batteries? I mean, I have dual bat zip and I have a green motor in it. Damn thing goes so fast it cant even go straight off the line. Goes in circles. At least on lynoleum it does. Carpet is another story. And one turn to the left or right sends it flippin.

turtle 11-13-2002 07:32 PM

i have no problem i use a 3.0 w/blue gears. soft bit fronts and stock zz backs

Lucid Dreams 11-13-2002 09:10 PM

an i know alot of em *evilgrin*
