Quick yes or no.

Should I go for these batteries? I'm a bit sceptical as there from china etc.

But are the capacities believable? And am I going to have problems buying cheap?

Do not buy those batteries

Batteries are not a thing to cheap out on. Not only can bad batteries fry your everything, dem Segaes catch fiiiiiire. I don't know about you, but I really hate it when things I am holding in my hands suddenly burst into flame.

No, those are junk.

Lmao, thanks all

I particuarly like Aux's assessment of using them


I thought as much, I will build a pack myself using some named brands. I was trying to find a pre-assembled 7.2-7.4v pack which had the pcb built in. That I could then just take apart and move about.

As with my prototype it seems to only last 15 minutes with 2860mah. But this was done with 2 cells I bought with a seperate pcb. So to mitigate problems this time, I want to use as many pre-assembled bits to ensure correct functionality and hopefully make it a bit more reliable?

Thanks again all
