I never said I wanted to slap a bunch of crap on my Z. I just know that you can get a great increase in speed and performance with liths.
Here is a great mod for anyone who wants to run lithium, but is deterred because the switch means you can no longer run AAA batteries. Atomicmods lithium setup is ridiculous in my opinion. Why have a car that could run only exclusively lithiums when you could have the ability to switch whenever you desired?

Its easy. The batteries can be easily purchased on ebay from a seller with the ebay I.D. r_gomez . He has good feedback and is a great seller. Simply solder a deans micro plug as seen in the pictures (red goes to grey, black to black) and Viola! you installed lithium in about a minute of work. Unplug your lithium whenever you want and pop in some AAA batteries. As an added benefit, the batteries even come with a volt cutoff to protect from an over-discharge.

Almost forgot, if you want there to be a battery clip for the lithium as seen in my pictures, you dremel an XMOD generation one battery clip a little wider and it fits perfect. This is a good mod but usually the body can hold the battery in just fine.
