lipo battery chargers

[LEWETHETIGER73]

I currently have some battery chargers I got in a trade and don't need.
Passport Ultra Lipo $45 obo Great charger for a beginner. It is a 1 button charger with power supply built in. Balances while you charge.

Next one is a ICE competition charger. $65 obo. I personally have never used it but I understand it to be an excellent charger. It does need a power supply with it.

I'm interested in the Passport Ultra. PM your #. Thanks.

i may want to start doing lipos keep the ice if you can lol i really do want to race again but to be competetive these days u gata have lipos

side note the ice can charge regular nimh and nicd's right?

[hotshift13]

Yeah you need lipos to be competetive, I'm getting walked for making very minor mistakes. Even in spec slash it makes a big difference, I tried my friends truck with lipo and it was night and day difference. Hopefully Santa brings me a sc10 and a couple lipo packs...If not I may be interested in the ICE charger...

Have you changed your tires yet on the 4x4? Go with some subcultures. They work the best.

my sc10 i have a feeling would be nuts on a lipo. its geared just right and i've got one really good nimh pack that seems to last forever and god it boogies. i'll have to see what kind of money i've got this week i'll probably pick it up from you when you gana be at the track i need some seat time and some tips from the pro's

[LEWETHETIGER73]

I am not much of a pro, but I am getting better I plan on being at the track this thursday. They are closed friday and saturday. Just let me know

[Ricky Bobby]

no but i need to i shredded 2 of the 4 already on lipo's

[lilws6]

damn pretty shure i'm working until 7 thursday i gata see if theres away i can get off those days

[hotshift13]

I'll be there tuesday night, and Ill be there Thursday night in spec slash. I'll be there with my girls too so stop by and say hi!

[LEWETHETIGER73]

Hotshift13, what does your truck look like? I'll keep an eye out for you. I have the punisher body.

And wouldn't you know racing gets started around 7pm. But you can still get into the secound round. Or you might be able to make the first round. What class do you run?

[lilws6]

no idea i've got an sc10 with a brushless 17.5 setup i believe thats a stocker???

[LEWETHETIGER73]

Well if you are competent on the track you can run stock short course. If you never raced before you can run sportsman. Sportsman goes first after 7pm. Stock will usually go about 1/2 later depending on the turnout.

[lilws6]

i've never seen the track lol

[LEWETHETIGER73]

give sportsman a try. You can always go up from there!

[lilws6]

thats what i was gana do for the touring cars but they ripped that up and now i wana do the dirt. i'll have to start getting off some early days on thursdays and get on down there is thursdays the race days?

[hotshift13]

Yep give the sportsman class a whirl..I'll be in it after christmas with a sc10, Santa came early! I remember a Punisher truck, You race in stock truck right?? Maybe I'll wave a BCM banner, Think Scotty will care. Sorry for jacking the hell out of your thread.
