Which Battery ???

[53mech]

I just finished building a Vigor and have a

JR649 PCM Receiver
JR G460T Gyro
8700G Tail Servo
DS8311's all around

I'm looking at the 4000mah 4 cell from Duralite and want to make sure this battery pack is ok.

Also will my Triton Charger work for the battery pack? Or do I need to buy a charger from Duralite.

Thanks for any advice.

It will work very well, I get 8 or 9 flights out of that on my Raptor 50 w/ 9252s, 401 and a revlock.

Get the Duralite charger, it works with the balance circuit on the battery and it voids thier excellent warranty if you dont.

Thanks for the timely response.
That's what I was hoping to hear.

Would a TP1010 with TP210 be able to charge the duralite battery? Hate to have to get another charger?

Thanks

Yes you can use those chargers. But you will have to charge at about 750 mah rate.
The Duralite receiver batteries have a Safe Charge circuitry built into the pack. So if the Charge rate is too high or the charger connected incorrectly it will disconnect the charge circuit.

Also here is what the Warranty states:http://www.duralitebatteries.com/warranty.html

2. Always use the DURALITE PLUS™ Charger with the Product. Failure to do so may result in damage to the battery, diminished capacity or shortened cycle life. The above warranty shall be void if the DURALITE PLUS charger™ is not used.

The first thing they look at is the charge safe circuit, if its cooked they know you didn't use thier charger. :)
