Where to buy Battery?

By Winco - Posted on 08 June 2010

I'm looking at buying the all new 7 UP Trout Light http://www.troutie.com/index.php?option=com_cont... but they can no longer ship matching Li-ion or Polymer batteries to Australia due to air freight import restrictions. So can anyone recommend where I could purchase a 14.8v 5.2Ah bottle battery other than Lupine please? I don't have time nor have the inclination to build one either.

Thnx - Winco

This place is pretty good:

Get yourself a Hyperion charger:

Of course, you wouldn't order batteries from them though Eye-wink

He has a good range of batteries, battery chargers and also charge bags, a must for charging li-po batteries at home

A few mates have now bought from there and are happy with the outcome. Whilst not "name brand" batteries they are cheaper than most of the rc places I have searched.

Also stay away from battery space dot com. Good quality batteries, mine are still going strong after years of abuse, but their shipping fees are now beyond a joke, including a recently added "dangerous goods handling fee" on top of the already high dangerous goods postage rates.

Hope that helps

PS, you won't be disappointed with that light, Chris makes great quality gear. Did you buy direct from him or did you get it through Cutters?
