Would this work? - 12.15.2005, 01:53 AM

I have some batteries like the ones below.
Would I be able to buy an extra cell and ad it on to these making them 8cells total?
Just looking for some cheap xtra power until I go LiPo for my 9L.
Thanks.

I'd love to, but the specs for the 9L says max of 16 cells. And some people say even that's pushing it.:eek: :D

I dont think its good if you've already used the packs and put a new cell in them. I have the same packs (got them off ebay) and i was going to do the same but then read it wasnt good.

I seen a pack like what you talking about. I don't remember where. If you have the packs. You just have to add the cell. You could loose some resistance if you changed to a side by side though. If you don't have the packs i could look around and see if i find them for you.

I would suggest 16 cells on a 9L only for some speedruns. For constant bashing or racing, the 9L will get too hot on 16.
Just my opinion. Keep an eye on the temps.

The gearing that I am running now is 66/19, and was thinking of going to a 21t pinion. Do you think I should stick with the 19 if I ad the extra cells?
Thanks.

Well I think if you cells arend to old it won't make that much of a difrence.
And its a cheaper way to ad two more cells then build a compleet new pack;)

If I were you I would just try it.:D
What's the worse that good happen.
If it won't work then you get the extra cell off again.
