I have Venom 6v 4200 batter and sever chargers.


The problem is I do not which one is the best.


Charger #1: Dynamite 7.2V 800mA Ni-Cd Charger; Output: DC 12V 800mA; Overheats after 10 mins


Charger #2: Class 2 Power Supply; Output: DC 9V 250mA; Just plugged in to see what will happen


Charger #3: Traxxas EZ start charger. don't have output specs; Never got the light to turn to green


Which one would be the best to use?

It's a Tamiya-style charge jack. I use it when I put the pack on my peak charger. I'd leave it on there and just let it hang out of the receiver box for convenience. Just notch the box and strap the lead down to the side, I used RX tape, or you could use Velcro. Also, the thicker wire creates less resistance when charging.

I have the 5000 mah DDM receiver pack. I just cut the shrink wrap a little bit to move the tamiya wire so it's not right at the top edge of the battery pack.and used electrical tape to keep it on the side of the pack....this allows you not to have to notch the radio box.

I really can't believe you sold your (amazing) beast on an 'IF' :confused:


...must be you wanted to build another and if not that one it will be another one... :rolleyes: Do you still have a decent truck to bash around with for the summer?
 
I forgot to mention....no I don't have a large-scale. Luckily RonE is sending me his XTM buggy' which is an FG marder clone. Thank again Ron!
