800AR's or new Sanyo 1300's in Push E Cat
I am interested in a version 3 Push e cat,
and I would like a fast charge cell batt pack. Would 800AR's or the new Sanyo cp1300's work. I would get an 8 cell batt pack. Thanks in advance. |

I'm using an 8 cell 800AR pack right now and they work fine. Since the CP1300's weigh the same and have more capacity, I think they'd be even better. I'll have to build an 8 cell pack and try it. I did put a 7 cell CP1300 pack in my Razor - worked well.

Ralph,
Where do you purchase the CP1300's? It sounds like the CP1300's will make the 800AR's obsolete. Thanks. |

The 800AR cells are a very good cell that can handle a lot of current - in fact, a lot more than you would throw at it with a Speed 400 motor. They are somewhat "overkill" for the Speed 400 motor. For the same weight/size, you could get more duration from other cells like the CP-1300 or NIMH 1600 cells.
In some situations with hot motors and higher currents, though, you still need the 800AR cells, which are being replaced by the CP-1300. Shawn eflightpower.com [This message has been edited by sf_247 (edited 05-21-2001).] |

Shawn,
Are you saying that the 800AR's can put out more current than the CP1300's? If so, then it's even harder to chose between the two kinds of batteries. -Aikens |

To confuse you a little further, 1400AEs are also the same size and weight and are good for sp 400/480 applications and they are cheaper than the CP1300s ($3.50 vice $5.00).
I have three packs I have been using for years. Chuck Hill |

The CP-1300SCR cells and the N-800AR cells weigh the same, but the similarity end there. The 1300's are a 1/2 subC and the 800's are an A cell. The 1300's have a lower internal resistnace and will do better at higher currents than the 800's. I doubt that Sanyo considers the 1300 as a replacement for the 800 since they are different size.
