Batteries
The quick answer: These are the batteries considerations that we recommend to realize the highest level of all around performance from your Thrasher Jet Boat:
- Thrasher V1, V2, V3, and Thrasher 27 XP: 6s between 5000mah and 6000mah with weight below 800g - lighter is better. Please ignore the C rating, these peak ratings and do not apply to your Thrasher since it is designed well and will run a continuous draw of around 55 amps, so any Lipo battery within the specified mah range will work well.
- Thrasher 27 LR: 4s between 5000mah and 9000mah with weight below 800g - lighter is better. Please ignore the C rating, these peak ratings and do not apply to your Thrasher since it is designed well and will run a continuous draw of around 45 amps, so any Lipo battery within the specified mah range will work well.
More information for a customized solution:
If you chose to go a more custom route for cost or other reasons, the following information is to help you select a battery specifically for how you want to run your Thrasher Jet Boat. The following two charts show the range of battery sizes that a Thrasher can hold and the likely capacity that each battery, based upon voltage and size, will have. The higher the voltage, between 7.4 and 22.2 volts, the faster the speed of the boat and the higher the mAh the longer the boat will run on a single charge. Example batteries listed are representative. Many different manufactures' batteries can be used, dimensions and specs will vary. You will need a female XT90 connector installed on your battery in order to connect to your Thrasher.
