MARLIN EP RTR uPGRADE TIPS
The Marlin RTR includes an AC wall charger to charge the Ni-Cd battery. This charger allows you to charge
the Ni-Cd battery only where an AC outlet is available. If you'd like to extend your time at the lake and charge
the Ni-Cd battery more quickly, we suggest purchasing an AC/DC Ni-Cd/Ni-MH fast-charger. An AC/DC fast-
charger will allow you to charge the Ni-Cd battery from both an AC source and a 2V DC power source (like
your car battery). This means you can charge the Ni-Cd battery at the lake, allowing you to operate your boat
as many times as you want. We suggest the Pro-Peak 2500 Digital AC/DC Peak-Charger.
A 6-Cell 800mAH Ni-Cd battery is included to power your Marlin EP RTR. For more speed and run-time,
we suggest purchasing a 7-Cell Ni-MH battery with more capacity. We suggest the Global/Ripmax 8.4v
3600mAH Ni-MH Stick Pack. The extra cell will give you more speed and the higher capacity will give
you more run-time.
Ni-MH Batteries cannot be charged with the charger included!
This section lists the items that are not included in your kit that you will need to drive and maintain your new Marlin EP RTR. As you
