Speedcell Batteries

Post by Wombat » Tue Aug 31, 2010 8:23 am

Anyone know anything about them?
They are seeming quite popular in the UK, 'specially on the PB website and magazine. Smaller size than your OEM Battery. Lithium, with only 10% degredation per year.
Do they sell them in Australia? The ones I've seen are in the US and retail for about $250.
Just Google Speedcell Batteries

Im surprised no one mentioned turn tech. And yes they will start a TRX. Go for the 7.5Ah, but a 5Ah will indeed do it, just.

What about an 8Ah Odyssey? would that turn a TRX over?

Cheers lenny.. Now im back home for good and not running around, ill have MUCH more time for projects (the TR1X amongst other things) and ill be plenty more active.

As for the odyssey 8ah, id be surprised if it didnt.

The main reason i linked the Turn-Tech batteries.. Look at the damn size of the things !! they are less than 1/4 of a normal battery and can be mounted in ANY angle.. Track rats love them and I intend to get one once i get a few things sorted electrical wise at my end.
