[Ponch]

Never seen somebody use that box. Probably could fit but not sure.

[kevinF]

i use that box poncho. so do many others. not sure if itll work for the 8ight, i tihnk it will but not sure

[Ponch]

Sorry, should have been more clear, I meant I've never seen anyone use them on an 8ight.

why not just get the mugen box like everyone recommended

[motoxer4life]

i would but i just wanted to no if any other one was cheaper that will work

[satoch]

Why buy that when you can get a slightly used, and much better, Ofna box off of ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/OFNA-CHROME-TOP-STAR...dZViewItem

I use the exact same box for my 8ight and works great . Easier than using my crome top for that buggy . You can fit a gell cell in there and get one for like $17 from Tower .

[motoxer4life]

ok ive heard it alot but wut exactly is a gel cell? lol thanks.

[motoxer4life]

but satoch will the ofna one work good with the 8ight. i want one that lines up good and works w/o modifications. And one that will hook up to like a regular battery and work good with one.

[Traxxas_Junkee]

A gel cell is a mini 12 volt battery.

[motoxer4life]

and how does it hook up to the box just w/ like a regular connector or somethin?

[Traxxas_Junkee]

Yeah, a regular flat connector. It will have everything you need.

[motoxer4life]

alright thanks one more thing tho wut brand and size do u recommend?

[motoxer4life]

and where do u recommend buying one from.

[Briguy]

Get a 7AH gell cell , Tower Hobbies has them for around $18 . Depending on which charger you have you can charge it with that.Or can buy a wall charger for the battery and is $10.99 .In the box you are looking at I just Shoo gooed the battery in place , I also put some liquid electrical tape on the battery connections after connecting the wires so they wouldn`t short out on the box incase the battery ever came loose. The Ofna Chrome Top will work but at least for me it was a pain and the smaller box was easier . Plus I have H8 and is nice having a box set up for each bug .

The only problem I've ever heard w/ starter boxes and the 8ight is that the flywheel hole in the chassis is smaller than standard. So the starter wheel needs to be beveled on both sides to get good flywheel contact.

I didn`t have to for either box . Long as you get the bug set perfectly on the box there is no need to .

[motoxer4life]

allright but if i do get the battery u suggested briguy wut charger should i get for it or wut is the 1 u got? How do i no how long it takes to charge?

[Traxxas_Junkee]

Just plug it in over night.

[motoxer4life]
