Battery questions
Hi all! Been away for awhile. Anywho, I'm at the battery stage of my project and I need help (surprise). So I'm running a 12 volt rated pump and was thinking of getting an 11.1 volt battery, but the dimensions of it are too big. So I was wondering if I can use a 7.4 volt and still get decent power from the pump?
The pump is rated at 150psi at 12 volts. |

There are lots of different sizes lipo 3s batteries out there, e.g ebay, would advice you to search for a suitable one.

Re: Battery questions
How about if it was an 11.1 volt battery? I've found one on eBay that's pretty compact

Re: Battery questions
That's the one to go for, that is the LiPo batteries with 3 cells, named '3S', mostly used these days for 12V setups. They are about 12.5 V fully charged, and one will typically recharge them when they have dropped to about 11.1V. A charger that is prepared for LiPo batteries is needed. And LiPo voltage alarm is needed, to hook up to the battery. If dropping the voltage bellow about 11V regulary, the lifetime of the battery will be relatively much reduced.

Re: Battery questions
I just bought a 10 cell 12v 2500mAh as a second battery and although it came in the wrong shape because I didn't see anything other than FLAT as an option I was able to get it to the configuration I needed and made it fit. It was $82.50 delivered... no clue if that's a good price I had a hard time finding one.
