Building new Excal II battery pack

[John(Tx)]

Has anyone used the long lasting batteries to build a new battery pack? I have the old original worn out battery pack and figured I could undo the pack and replace batteries with the LI batteries, just don't know which ones to use, thanks......John

John, i use the 1600 from maxxpack. the Xcal II has a 1000 mah and the blue is a 700 mah. simple to do, just use a little RTV silicon to complete the seal and attach the black cap back. I highly recommend you get the charger if you get either. The smart chargers charge in about an hour and has a light and WILL shut off when charged. The standard charger if used on the 1600...... will take FOREVER to charge. more than enough hours of hunting. The lith is a little more pricy if cost comes into play, and i dont think you can use a standard charger on them because of a third wire that checks each cell to ensure they are fully charged. Either will give you more hours than you need out there. Ive used their batteries that they make for an ET/Explorer....... great batteries, no complaints.

The lithium comes with a proper charger and is an improvement over the Maxxpack much like it (the Maxx) is over the original. At least that is my experience.
