    Dont waste your money. There is no benefit to cooling lipos.

    I agree with Larry, if your Lipos are overheating you have other issues you need to identify and address.

    If your Li-pos are overheating you have bigger issues.

    At the $2 pump that they're selling for $20 with velcro and wiring. I've messed with those pumps before and I'm not sure how they got the tubing on the large fittings.

    Wasn't someone else marketing water-cooled li-pos, G something

    Yea they were making great boats, though for sure they'd still be in business, should be much better than this Traxxas crap

    Not sure where they're pulling their numbers;
    Ran a few cheap packs, SMC 6000mah 26C 4S2P


    got 35mph and 10min of run time, chewed through 8600mah
