need help shoping - GWPHOENIX - 05-27-2006

i do not know much about the lipo packs so i'm hoping someone could direct me to a good deal. i will also need a proper charger. for the servos i plan on getting it was recomended to use a 2000 lipo pack in my buggy.(8th scale gas). i do not know if that is correct or not but it is a good place to begin.
i have also herd about resisters and built in ones,don't know if this is true or not.the easyer to install the better.
thankyou for the help in advance!!!

i dont know if u know this but that is only a dc charger. you would have to buy a power supply to use that if u dont have one.

If you're gonna buy a li-poly pack, don't forget to pick up a regulator.

So far I have been pretty happy with Apogee batteries!
I have ruined a few packs, but all my fault. I just picked up a little 'alarm' thingy that should solve my draining problems. Their stuff isn't the cheapest, but the performance I get has been great. If you don't have a charger already, they have a very simple little one that I have been using that also works well.
This is them:

Another nice thing, is they have lots of 'how tos' and info about lipo on their site.
Hope that helps..
Brian.
