    cell sheild

    I want to run lippos in my two brushed boats and I know I need a cell shield but can not find one. Is there any different name that I can search?

        Dom 30 bucks and where does it fit in the circuit? I would assume it needs to go between the batts and ESC but the picture shows a receiver plug.

          This will give you an idea. Select LVC on the diagram.. http://www.offshoreelectrics.com/wiring.php

            Got it, hard wired to the batt and between the receiver and esc. Makes total sense. 70 BUCKS I think I will keep an eye on my watch. Fixed income thing!!

                  Just thinking but what about if I want to run NiMH? Will that be a problem or do I just replug the ESC to the receiver and let the lippo thing hang?

                    I think you would simply bypass the unit.

                      That's what I'm thinking too
