Tell Me What You Think.
 

Hey everyone,
im just about to recive my e-maxx in the mail tommorow(tuesday).
im running gp3300's on it, 7 cell/w deans plugs and the 12 ga ultra wire:030: the usual:027:

just bought them off sylvester for a nice/fair pirce. 50$ CAN
however one bar that connect to the cells had disconected but still attached to the other cells.

Sylvester tryed to salder them back together but didn't work out, so i took of the solder and taped up the battery nice and tight.
because i don't really like how the bars are exposed and scared me that when i get my gorilla maxx chassis in alunimum that they will short to metal to metal contact.
the cells seem to hold nice n' snug because i taped them up with hockey tape, seems to hold better then all the other tapes.

tell me what you think,:018:
the gp3300's with the tape and without
"pics of my e-maxx will come in tommorow.":004:

Sorry everyone for posting it in the wrong area.

And again, a mod may move this, only if i were a mod, id be there;)

well once i buy the chassis of you then it would fit in this area:p

so you didnt solder the bar back onto the cell? that will be a problem of sure. i had one that was barely loose, not even noticeable and i even checked em to be sure, and it didnt move, so i thought it was still soldererd, come to find out it wasnt and that was my whole problem as to why may truck you cut on and off...

I recall that the bar was soldered on there nicely.

True, but right now you dont even have the emaxx, so i think it should be moved;) Oh and Mike.l, and this goes for the majourity of the forum users, please check where you post some of your threads, the mods may not have time to move or find any of your threads, please give them a break, thanks.

I run a G2R and have run side by side packs with no protection other than the blue foam that comes with the chassis and have had no problems

cut me some slack.
squee they are not aoldered at all but they seemed to hold veryn nicely.
i Know already there going to disconnect already so i just temporarly held them together.
It will be fine for a couple runs, i guess?:p

If not soldered they are going to suck. the bouncing and vibratoin is going to make the loose and gain connection. I hope it don't fry an esc in process.

that would be a big problem so just solder the battery already

Those tabs can only handle so much before they weaken. If you are running brushless the amps you are running through them will not help, so you need to solder it before it becomes a problem

Just to be safe id shrink those batteries, but if you dont care, thats fine too!

thanks everyone! i soldered it and took off the tape. even it looked nice with the tape on but it didn't fit my e-maxx tub. scince its plastic there shouldn't be any! problems! thanks everyone!

Glad to hear and see theyre fine, theyre charging as we speak;)
