Comparing the two most popular affordable aftermarket LIPO packs for the Traxxas X-Maxx! HRB 9500 - www.ebay.com/i... Zeee - www.amazon.com... Subscribe for more!
I contest also the HRB 4S 9500mah are definitely the business. I came from Traxxas 4s 6700mah and these HRB are night and day difference. I’ve only cycled them twice so far and still haven’t drained them fully on a run! I can’t imagine when they are broken in. Mine came with XT60 connectors and these Traxxas to XT60 adapters but they don’t fit the traxxass plugs on my new XRT truck. I think they are gen 1 and my XRT has the gen 2. My hobby shop had the correct adapters. Hopefully I don’t melt the solder, think at that point I’ll go all IC5
Curious if there is a way to test discharge definitively? Wouldn't be surprising if some of these Chinese companies fudge the numbers on batts. Seen some with high discharge at very low prices.
You are right! I have experienced that exact issue with some packs. The way you test is to run the pack down to lvc and then your charger will give you a rough number of what it puts back in within 5-10% of actual capacity.
100% with spare room. 6700 stock (EXPENSIVE) Traxxas ones stats at the top I measure them as 178 x45 50 +/-2mm so each tray on the xmaxx can handle longer batteries. The cap for a comfortable fit seems to be W x H of about 48 X 50. I can get the clasps over (just) the swollen 6700 stock units so there are I would say about 4mm you can squeeze extra from the heights given below. I took the measurements from the corners My son's stock ones are puffing up after 3rd year of use but not intensive use bashing at all. Maybe pulling the kids around the garden on a peddle cart with it and the max6 ESC was too much for 25C batteries though so I can't blame traxxas for that. Have a look at my research so far if it's useful for anyone. I read that heavier Xmaxx = more prone to crash damage, but I guess for long life use on the flat and not bashing would be fine for these heavier ones. (or you are better driver than me 🙂 So far for me the sweet spot toi replace the 6700's are the 8000mah Zee's but i'll keep looking now at the HRB's. Also note the traxxas 6700's say on the side 644grams, I measured both at 668 & 673, so are marked increase from the claim on the packet! I doubt the gasses built up weight the difference.

I use the HRB 9500s..Definitely worth the money
What charger are you using to charge the hrb? What connectors are you using?
Can you fit any of these batteries in Traxxas Maxx v1?
@@gavingowing7572 no sir, they are too long
Ive been running some Zeee 5200 2s lipos in a voltage for a month with no problems
Zeee makes some great batteries!
One of them never fully charges up though
@@jimbo4203 Strange maybe you should contact them they might send you a replacement

@@SuperFastRc Thanks for the tip
Will they fit in the xmaxx battery trays?
Yes, thats what they are designed to fit
Will that HRB fit into the Maxx V1 I have a Velcro strap system?
Im not sure. I dont have a chassis of a v1 to test.
What i can tell you is that they are 165Lx50Wx41H mm
Hello, im curios if the Zeee lipo batteries fit the Traxxas udr?
Im sure zeee has a model that does but i do not have a UDR to test with i am sorry.
Does anybody know the best place to buy these? I can’t find them with traxxas connectors.
Ebay is where i got them
Amazon
Can you 100% confirm the HRB will fit the maxx v2! Im tryin to find a battery that will fit my xmaxx, xrt and maxx v2

What about the Zee 7200?
Im sure it will work fine just a little less runtime. I do not have a Zeee 7200 to test
See 9000 first jump on my Xmaxx and one cell goes down
You popped a cell on your zee?
@@SuperFastRc yup they refund but don’t even want the other one
