HRB Lipo Batteries

[@calel14]

How are the batteries now?, Planning to get one for mg drones

[@itsmeericb]

Are you using these lipos in an E Revo? I am curious if 6000 mah will fit in the compartment. They are long and they fit fine in my Tyhpon 3s.

[@rcguygarage]

Dang guy this video is old. But from memory I believe I did. I'll check in the am.

@@rcguygarage Thanks!

[@MrStefanokj]

I own an Fimi A3, I have 2 original batteries, in about 8 months they last very little, about 10 minutes with the drone stopped in midair. I saw on youtube that by making a small modification you can attach a battery of rc drone. My question is, in your opinion, considering that the original battery weighs 170g and has a capacity of 2000Mah, which battery would be the best Mah / weight compromise for a longer flight duration? I was thinking of mounting a 2500mah battery, but I am still undecided about which to take, in a forum they recommended the gens ace, I would pay them 35 € each, instead a 2600mah hrb would pay about 20 € Could you give me some advice?

[@vitodambra72]

So do you still have the original E-revo brushed version? I still have mine and the brushless version. E-revo V1 still one of my favorites, even though my son and I have the 2.0 upgraded fully 😉👍🏼💯

Yes I do😂🤣

[@SupremeGang420]

Have you used HOOVO batteries? If so how are they?

[@rcguygarage]

@@SupremeGang420 Problem is battery technology is always changing in a sense and even sometimes on a good known battery such as supposedly Trinity and Jen's Ace. I've had issues with those batteries and in reality. Do you really know where each manufacturer is getting there battery from? It's very similar to dishwashers, refrigerators and washing machines. A lot of times there are primary sources that manufacture and different name brand companies either just slap on a sticker and call it done or make a very minor change that can be positive or negative. The problem is the base source materials. A lot of the times are still the same. I will say I primarily use ovonic packs and that's not saying I've never had a problem. But I am very abusive with my packs on both sides of the coin and the ovonics seem to hold up pretty good at the moment. I'm testing Trinity rapid Trinity. It's not spelling it right I use talk to text TURNIGY

[@SupremeGang420]

@ okay. So I’ve heard so bad reviews about the HOOVO ones and I looked at the HRB ones you showed in the video on Amazon and I didn’t see any bad reviews about them. I’ll have to purchase a few. Well actually maybe one for now to see how it will hold up.

[@rcguygarage]

@SupremeGang420 keep in mind how old this video is

[@keeponrcnbrianmiles4207]

Great Video. Would u still recommend those 3 cell lipos ? I would be interested in ur suggestion I have 2 slashes 1. ultimate and 2nd slash is a 4x4 vxl lcg tsm looking to run a different lipo then Traxxas lipo by the way great vids u have…

[@cows1990]

Dude I was looking at getting some HRB shorty packs so I always go on youtube to see people reviews on the product I want and you were is first place of the videos. Crazy. I'm going to try them out.

How are these batteries? I need 2 or 4 4s lipos for my new X-Maxx.

[@rcguygarage]

So far the HRB USA GRAPHENE lipos are AWESOME

[@MrRickTic]

@@rcguygarage Thank you Very much for the quick reply. I think i will buy 2.

[@thelaughingman79]

[@MarcusVinicius-yp4fg]

what robot is this in the background? what he does? In your opinion, what is the best battery for an F450 W / NAZA Lite updated to v2 for a long flight time

[@dangavin]

What has happened to this battery over time, I need to get another 3s 5000 and am looking at this one

[@rcguygarage]

So the original batteries I had HRB failed even though I properly storage charged them. One cell was completely dead and the other lipo one cell was definitely on it's way out. Tried to recover them using the NIMH fix but that was a no go. Batteries were out of warranty but after talking with the company they "decided" it was best to warranty them plus 1. So far they are performing as expected. The real test will be extended storage however I have to modify the way I storage charge these batteries. Time will tell 😂🤣👍

[@rcguygarage]

@@avalanche15301 they so far are so GREAT! I've been using them in my UDR and they've been completely submerged and are performing. That UDR is a battery drainer and they are surviving MULTIPLE high rate discharges and top offs.

@@cliffordmcgraw8740 hop on a live some time cause I talk about what batteries that I actually recommended today!!! So far as of right now HRB USA GRAPHENE, OVONIC AIR and ZEEE but you have to pay attention to your power needs.

[@jasonlax2102]

How r the battery's holden up

[@rcguygarage]

I don't bother with these anymore. They seemed to be good but they are average at best. I even tried the graphene with the same results. However I am VERY hard on my batteries.

[@cindyshields5753]

I bought a 4s lipo hrb battery and it was broke fresh from the package dead cells was the case . No need for help already returned it.

Great Video..I ust got my first Traxas Slash 4*4 and reall dissappointed with the NIMh battery and charger that came with it...I am barely getting 10 mins of run time with not more than 5mins at max power..can you suggest a good battery pack and charger I can buy from Amazon for this? I am not looking to upgrade my ESC or motor or any gearing as of now..Thanks for any help!

Yes you have to check fitment specs for every battery to vehicle just like in automotive👍

[@DukeLegend505]

@@rcguygarage Yeah, usually i always check on stuff like that, But I guess i just figured it was a 3s and all were the same in the 3s group lol so assumed it would work lol... Always check everything.

[@Garrysullivanjones]

I bought these for my e revo brushless. The same exact batteries. I checked their cell capacity out the box. Cell 1. Was 3.2 , cell 2 was 3.6, cell 3 was 3.8. Is that normal for them to be delivered with that voltage? I mean you say don’t go below 3.7 a cell and mine were below that brand new. Lipo are a dodgy technology. This is after I puffed 4 25c traxxas pos at 120 $ each. I’m predicting these hrb will fail like all lipo do prematurely. What happens if you drop a fully charged and swollen lipo on the road at force???

[@rcguygarage]

They do say you get what you pay for. I don't buy Traxxas batteries, overpriced. To be honest maxamps is the way to go but they are EXPENSIVE. I've been testing a China direct battery zoppower and so far I'm extremely surprised, no puff, cells are balanced and charge well. Yes lipos are definitely scattered for quality and usage. Zop power again have been my cheapest buy and haven't been a problem. Maxamps are my most expensive . . . yeah damn are they expensive but top notch. Yes throwing your batteries to pavement at 90mph can damage them 🤣😂🤣😂👍

[@Garrysullivanjones]

What's Up Guy Garage I’ll look into it maxamps. Can that brushed erevo on the bench handle those 50c 3s’? I had this old rfi brand lipo puffed 1 1/2 times normal size and still works , probably should get rid of the puffer 🐠 Cheers 🤪
