2s Shorty LiPo Recommendations....

[HyperDunley]

Hi all. I am looking to buy 2-3 Shorty 2s batteries and wondered what you guys would recommend??

Budget wise between £35-£50 each and want to try and find the best balance between power and run time.

I've been looking around but they all look the same to me, so thought I'd ask on here for some advice :)

Thanks

You need to give more detail.

What buggy you gonna be running them in, 2wd or 4wd lcg or standard 4mm tubes or 5mm

Fair point mate....

They will be used in a CAT XLS rere. I will be using a 6.5t motor, 160a ESC and looking for standard 4mm tubes.

Thanks

I run these, seem popular and are pretty good for the money.

These are a great option. Low Profile and get c rating and capacity.

The Intelect listed above are 5mm tubes, but you could use adaptors if you felt like.
