Well, Battery Food for thought anyhow...
For the convenience of it I had assembled a couple airborne packs from
Wal-mart 2200 Nimh batteries..All was well till I crashed my Wonderful
Ava-Gea...Two of the cells failed at the same time..They had been charged
for a couple months on a Sirius Smart charger..So I blame the cells and not
the charger...
My friend Jon Stone suggested he does/ I should use nothing but sanyo
batteries in my airborne packs..A couple months later, so far so good...My 2
cents about off brand batteries.."You pays your money/You takes your
chances"...Brian Smith
Brian,
Same here. So far the highest cap AA size Nimh cell I use from Sanyo is 1650mah. I have not seen any highest cap. I don't think anyone can use more that 1650 per day of flying. If you need higher capacity, you should have room for bigger cell. Or if you fly that much per day, recharge.
Those 2100, 2300's are great for cameras, shavers....etc. If they die, no big deal. I would not put those in anything that I deem important as life support system.
