Like this one? This is the Kintec V2.

YUp. However, that isnt the ACTUAL v2 Seaking/Turnigy 180. The v2 still only had 3 caps.

Interesting Rumdog! Then this has to be a Kintec mod,Nice!! Thanks for clarifying!

example in an old sale thread: http://forums.offshoreelectrics.com/...ing+180+recall

there is an old Seaking 180 recall thread around. Cant seem to find it though.

I think mine was modded by kintec with the two added caps,
And white water proofing silicone around the body of it to.

I think we should call our version the 2.5 lenny!! lol

Thanks everyone!
I guess I was jealous! lol... I liked the 5 big caps, I agree with Basstronics that the four little ones does very little to help. Better than nothing but I prefer to solder the cap banks from OSE on my ESCs any how.
@ h2o 1, no mine don't have that lable, none of them had. Maybe Kintec had a different batch? And, if he spent the time to mod them, he deserves a big !

I have one that I got from Ben at FC Racing over a year ago when he was there. It was a returned one that the guy Bit---d about and Ben
sent it to me. It is still in my DF33 and going strong. there was nothing wrong with it at all. Anyways, the thing that gets me
about those 5 caps is that (if memory serves) they are mounted in series-parallel and not all in parallel. Wonder why they did that?

Makes one want to say hhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,, LOL

Never had a prob with the original that had only 3 caps myself.. Run decent cells, no need for more caps.
