Our battery is 1300 mha - but it's a high quality brand that is popular because of a good reputation.

The battery link I posted I can not vouch for.:)

@Nomad... I think DJ was/is trying to point out as well is that he can't be responsible if the battery damages your JD... So maybe it's wiser if you just buy and use another 1300mAh battery from ez robot... No matter which way you go be careful of your wiring....

Most, if not all, of the battery manufacturers (assemblers) will fudge the mAh a little and the C rating a lot. The mAh rating is usually more reliable but the C rating is not to be trusted.

I think the biggest worry you have with LiPo batteries, as far as damaging your equipment goes, is if it bursts into flames from shoddy manufacture.

Yeah, Lipos are one of things, that if you just look at them, they burst into flames, usually so fast you dont have time to get out of the way.:(
