First things first Blondie. You're spamming your own thread. This is a forum, not texting. Don't click Reply after every sentence. Look at what everybody else is doing. Do that.

Secondly, don't mention your age. Go back and delete that post. Otherwise you'll get kicked out for being underage. Do it now.

Thirdly, I heard you have a Nemesis you want to upgrade. Booyah! Let's talk about that for a moment. The stock Nemesis runs on six 1.5 volt D cells which produce a total of 9 volts. You can't use 6 AA to D converters with 3.7v batteries, that's over 22 volts. You'll burn out the motors and switches almost immediately.

On the other hand, those Coolook LiFePOs are only 3.2 volts each. You could safely run four of those with two dummy cells for a total of 12.8 volts. But here's the thing, they're only 700mAh so they're not going to last long between charges. Maybe just 15-20 minutes of play time. Those aren't the right batteries for a power hungry Nemesis.

And you can't really go LiPo without opening the shell and soldering in some XT-60 connectors (or similar connectors depending on your country). Depending on the current drain, you might have to also disable a thermistor or two. Thiefy is right though, a decent LiPo like a Turnigy 3S 2200mAh-40C pack is the perfect battery for the Nemesis. But you'll also need a $25 charger, and you'll really have to pay attention to the voltage. Seriously, these unprotected LiPo packs are the ones that actually catch fire.

Contrary to popular belief, Li-ion batteries RARELY catch fire. Like almost never - if you use them correctly. So those Garberiels you were looking at aren't a bad choice. You'd only use four at a time with two dummies. Look for a set that comes with a decent charger.

The Nerf Rechargeable Battery Pack is also an excellent option. It's only 7.2 volts, but it really packs a punch. Many Nemesis owners have raved about it, including me. It's safe, comes with a charger, won't ever catch fire, and really bumps up the performance of the Khaos, Nemesis, and Hera.

Good luck BlondeBoi. Come back if you got any other questions.
