Depends what you have, make sure you don't put a battery with too many cells on it, and make sure the connector matches. If you have a weird proprietary connector, you can probably bring it to a hobby shop and they would switch it for you. The one near me charges like $5 to solder on a different (more common) connector - was worth every penny. IC5/EC5 seems to be the best choice at the moment for the 2-4 cell batteries
