Battery Ideas

Rechargeable battery option.

The Tenergy 5 cell, 6v 2000mah battery comes with a different connector than the stock RC Laser connector.  I found some JST connectors on Amazon (will put the link below) and I changed the connector on the new 5 cell battery pack.  Doing it this way will enable you to swap out your 4 AA brick and the rechargeable pack easily.  

The Tenergy Charger also has the RC Laser plug as an option.  

Tenergy 5 cell 6v 2000mah rechargeable battery (2 pack)
Tenergy Charger - Basic (less $$$)
Tenergy Charger - Advanced Charger (more $$$)
JST Connector if you need to mate battery to your boat
