If a larger battery 5200mah wont fit…

To answer "Tank" it is not the voltage (volts) but more the intensity, 5200 Mah, for a novice in RC, who if I understand correctly, wishes to use his tank longer? what I understand!! but at the risk of repeating myself, in case of problems on the tank? and without knowledge of this type of battery, there is still a certain risk, just an observation on my part. Happy Sunday

Thanks for all your input peeps

5200MaH is 5.2aH. aH or MaH is the number of amps or mili-amps a the battery can deliver in a certain timeframe. It can deliver 1 amp for 5.2 hours or 5.2 amps for 1 hour or many steps in between. The amp hours of the battery only describes the rate of discharge of the battery and not how many amps the battery can deliver at a given time or how many amps the wiring is rated for. The "C" rating is used to measure the current draw of the battery. Yeah, he is looking for more runtime from his batteries. I also have an electronics background so I do understand current, amps, and voltage. Since the user hasn't changed the components in the tank that require higher amp draw, that higher MaH battery should be sufficient and cause no issues. You are correct that the USB charger would take forever to charge it which is why he was looking at better chargers. I think we are all on the same page at this point where there isn't an issue using the battery and charger you chose as long as that "clone" charger is of decent quality. Not all of the are which is why I went with the branded IMAX B6AC which is not anymore expensive than the clone he chose.
