SELECTING YOUR IGNITION BATTERY
- 8 VOLT PACKS:
The Rcexl Ignition is rated for 4.8v to a max of 6v. A 4-cell 4.8v pack with a minimum of 1800ma is fine (2100ma is better) and creates a hot spark. The Rcexl Ignition runs most efficiently on 4-cell packs. We recommend that you always use a new 4.8v pack.
6 VOLT PACKS:
We have found that 5-cell packs at peak charge can be over 7 volts. Therefore, if you are going to use a 5-cell pack, you must use a voltage regulator. The RCEXL Ignition runs more efficiently on 4-cell packs and will draw more current at 6v, as well as operating at a higher temperature with no performance advantage. You also have a higher chance of RF interference. We recommend the use of a 4-cell 4.8v pack. Do not use an old pack to power your ignition!
" IMPORTANT "
We will not warranty an ignition that has been
used with a 6volt pack without a regulator !
