Sand Scorcher Battery Pack

[mini the minx 0]

Hey All,

I've finally gotton my mitts on a sand scorcher 2010 after wanting one since i was a little un

It's all built and im just in the finishing stages of spraying / detailing the shell and driver

But im in need of some batteries so i can take bug to the beach .............. are these the right batteries ??

Are there any higher rating ones i can buy or if anyone can point me in the right direction i'd be uber grateful

Thanks

Lisa

They will do fine, unless you are an 'original' fetishist and want an original 'hard' hump battery from the correct era. My guess is if you are happy with a Re issue Scorcher (why wouldn't you be!) then this battery will be just fine. Make sure you have the correct charger rating for it.

Note the seller is a well known poster here, Time Tunnel Models, or The Shop Keeper.

i had a carson battery, but bought a couple of these too, there 3700mah so 1000mah higher and cheaper and they work great, made by vapextech.

Thanks for the replies guys

Its payday next week so i'll order a few packs so i can get good beach running times with the bug

Do you guys run them on the tamiya connectors ??

Only ask as all my other cars use deans as they run on lipo

Thanks again all

if you use deans on your other batteries, you might as well change the new battery connectors too, i dont use tamiya plugs at all, i use ec3 connectors myself.

what re your run times with these packs ??

I've been very happy with my runtimes from my packs from the shop used them direct and from ebay £16.99 for a 3700 frog battery works well with a bz in my frog and ss with sports tuned you even get a discount if you buy three or more. Have got the batteries and charges for my handsets, lasts ages.

The Component Shop will make packs up for you. I don't know what the cost is but I'm planning to ask for a 5000mAh hump pack for this car.
