So I fried my Castle Creations esc from the 1405 model and I was wondering if this would handle up to a 3 s 11.1 battery?

This combo will run up to 4s, great combination! Not sure what you are running it in but Slash 2wd is a monster with this setup

This combo is kinda a dog on 2s, 3s is perfect. But 4s it's a monster. I run my combo in my vxl on 3s all day and it's a blast. Tons of power wheelies on command. Dosnt get hot even on high gearing. Hope this helps

From the Castle chart a 2400 KV motor should be able to handle up to a 4S battery, so 3s should be good. I have had no problems with the 3S. http://www.castlecreations.com/support/documents/10th-Scale-Gearing-Chart-095-0130-01L.pdf

It all depends on the motor and ESC you choose. The kit does not come with electronics so as long as you choose a 3s compatible setup it will be fine. I'm using the Castle Sidewinder 3 with a Tekin 35t HD motor and a 3500 mah 3s

I used this for the APC Back-UPS ES 725 and it works well. I'm not sure about the 650. The APC company should list all the appropriate models this battery should fit. DG

I am unfamiliar with this model; however, I can not recommend this battery for any model as my battery started to fail at six months and it's failure presented in an unusual way. I would press the start button and the light would come on and as soon as I released the button the light would cutoff and the computer shut down. It took several of these cycles for it to stay on. Eventually the battery charge light would not come on at all. I switched back to my old battery, charged it and the problem went away. As such, I can not recommend this battery for any computer.

the flight time could possibly overheat the motors if you run them at close to full power for a long time. The motor should have a rating on it showing how much voltage and amps it draws, i would be more worried about your esc. But i would imagine that you should be fine because it is only a two cell.

No it's a third party piece of junk, get one of the 12 cell lithium batteries. I got my money back on this one and put it toward a 12 cell battery.

I must AMMEND my former statement!!! A DUMMY battery is NOT A DEAD one. They are actually sold as dummies by companies and are cheap. I was lucky enough to have been corrected by RbwNY on July 7th. He/she informed me of this and added that pairing a 'dead' battery with the Li-on s can cause damage, etc. to the equipment. I should have known this as I know that pairing even an alkaline with a on-alkaline is NOT recommended. My apologies to everyone out there who has read my former comment. And a BIG THANKS to RbwNY for the help and advice!!!

No! I have 3 ScumBusters that I LOVE but all 3 quit working at about the same time. AFter a LOT of research (someone said the replacement battery would fit) I took one of the SBs to a major battery store. They could not replace with any sort of battery. I spoke to B&D;, fussed and fumed. No help. B&D; is nuts. The price for a new SB is out of sight because they are no longer being manufactured. I am so disappointed...

Yes the battery can be upgraded the esc can handle up to around 3000 mah. For my information on upgrading take a look at my review on it.

The motor is a 2cell motor. A 3cell will eventually burn the esc. Best bet is to get a lower kv motor that can handle 3cell.

It has the Titan 550 12T engine in it. I have a 2s and I broke my chassis in half on my first time out. I'm not sure what the engine and ESC are rated to handle but i wouldn't suggest it the ESC would more than likely overheat quickly and having that much power would be hard to control anyway.

Yes in the long run. I called castle creations and their tech department told me this brand of lipo is under rated (c) and will harm your esc. My mamba monster esc caught on fire after a 10 minute run...

Assuming your current battery is 40ah or less, I would use the G1100 model.

You would have to check the HP battery compatibility matrix. Mine is a dv7-1175nr and HP doesn't specify any compatibility with 12-cell battery. Since the output voltage and mount is the same as the stock OE battery on my laptop, I took a leap of faith and tried it out...anyway the worst that could happen is damaging my old laptop, which would give me sufficient justification to buy a new one ;-) so, it's your call. I suggest do a little research and be pragmatic. By the way, this battery is cheap and you get what you paid for. It doesn't last long after a few months of use...and by not long I mean &lt;hrs a stock OEM 8-cell would last (if not the same). So I switched to SSD to save me battery (I got 2 HDs, just so you know). Currently, i'm getting 2-3 hrs of continuous use before I get low batt notification (so-so performance for a 12-cell). Video streaming would give me just an hour. Thought this should also help you on your decision....

I also have a different model. I've already retired this battery due to errors and not holding a charge.

A 2S Lipo is best for this system, I would not go 3s as it will fry the esc

Yes should work fine. However be careful not to over discharge the battery . Normally you would want a deep cycle type of battery. Their big and heavy. Just be careful not to take discharge below 11.5 volts
