Cheap "high voltage" esc Quest

[Serum]

That's not the shrink wrap you get from maxamps; this one is thicker. (and more flexible) the only type i've known for ages.. It's way more flexible than the normal shrink wrap you buy for batteries.

Yes, Lets hope it survives this weekend. If it does, it will be a nice alternative to the mamba esc in my rustler. Gets to be a hassle plugging it in the laptop at the track. I can barely see the screen in the sun.

I hope this won't effect Mike ESC sales.

Which heatshrink are you talking about Serum? The one that I'm using?

[phildogg]

yeah keep us posted about how well it works for ya.

Yes he is talking about the shrink on the ESC you used. It seems "rubbery"? Or thicker.

[johnrobholmes]

Yes, I want to know where I can get the thick rubbery shrink.

I got my heatshrink for Altex here in Houston. It's the same one I used on my batteries and it's hard. Zero Flex (looks deceiving). I like it since it keeps my batteries nice and warm for dragracing. Tashpop has seen it.

I like it a lot....it looks sturdy.

its good that all you speak about shrink wraps :) but i think ESC is more imprtant :)
I hope soon get any feedback about ESC performance, is it worth or not.

LOL, good point.

Everyone knows that a good heatshrink job is good for at least an extra 10A and/or 10v! Just like "turbo" or "NOS" stickers add about 10-15HP to any car.

Don't forget that a red paintjob will add at least 5mph to the top speed. Something to do with the refraction of light from the color red that exctly aligns the painted surface to the aparent motion of particles as they approach the speed of light. It also has to do with Brownian motion and has a direct correlation to the space/time continueum. It is all well over my head, but well proven in the origianl Star Trek. Oh, and William Shatner rules!

I thought I was a nut job....lmao!

heheheheh, it's cold here man. You should see me, when I put sweaters on my batteries when it hits 30' here.

But during the Summer I just put dual racing stripes around them for that extra ummphh.

Cause everybody knows that I live my life 10 seconds at a time.
