Re: Can you use 2 1600mah batteries on the 1/16 brushed

so i called traxxas and the MAH does not mater if anyone else was wondering however i do have another question. if you have 2 batteries both the same size and same volts but one is 1200 mah and say one is 2000 mah will the 2000 mah have less run time with more power? or more run time or about the same?

Re: Can you use 2 1600mah batteries on the 1/16 brushed

Keep in mind if you're running both batteries together whether you want them in series or parallel. Series will add the voltage giving more power but the same run time. Parallel will have the same power but twice the run time. Make sure the esc is capable of the voltage if you run in series. Parallel doesn't matter.
