important! bettery help needed

in a past issue of RCCA, there was an ad for a battery that lasts 3 days on a full charge. i think it was six or seven cells, lined up 2x3 (with 1 on top if it was 7 cells, of course). anyone remember/know off-hand what the battery is? i need to know tonight.

3 days of run time on one charge? Wha?! God I'd hate to see the price on that bad boy.

[firebird999]

well, it says "up to" 72 hours. i think it was around $150. still not bad though for that much run time.

Honestly, I'm not sure I would believe that.. if it is real, then holy ****.

[firebird999]

well, the ad was real at least. i know for a fact it said 72 hours. probably tops out at around 20 hours and justs lasts you about 3 days. and maybe it was $250. i can't really remember. maybe i'll email them.

sorry but that is an impossible claim

it will depend entirely on the device being used and its amp draw
so an LED that uses 15ma will run for 3 days but a motor that runs 6amp wont

there are battery's that may run an xmod motor for that amount of time but they are about the size of a shoebox
50ah jelly cells (lead acid)

if you have misread the ad and its actually saying it will hold a charge for 3 days then this is nothing , most if not all battery's will do that

it says 3 days of run time. i'll keep looking, but i do know for a fact it said thaT.
