Good place to buy batteries?

Post by jackalope »

Well it seems that my one battery pack is taking a poop on me, I mean it is like 5 years old so I can't complain really. So I'm in the market for a good battery and rather then just go spend $70 on a 5100mah battery I figured I'd see if you guys have and good leads on high capasity batteries.

No I don't have Lipo batteries and don't see me getting them any time soon either cause I'd have to replace the batteries in ALL my tanks and buy a new charger. I'm at 3 tanks and 1 half track right now but have parts coming to build 1 possibly 2 more Tigers so swapping to Lipo's isn't going to happen for a while.

Looking for 5000 and higher MAH batteries if anyone has ideas.

Thanks guys. :thumbup:

Jack...as you mentioned to someone else get them from an airsoft shop...they probably have the largest selections...I would recommend EVIKE or Airsplat....both ship free to Cali :D

OH ... for some reason I thought you were in Cali with Mark and Marc :D ...those two places still ship free on the continent ...Airsplat is closer to you ...as Evike hails from San fran I think :D
