Question Better battery than this?

Does anyone know what type of battery this is and if there is a better battery similar to it in size? I would like to replace these. Thanks.

Here is another shot. Doesn't remain charged too long. Also the motor that it drives has been lifting the trailer slower and slower.

Okay it look's like two 7.2v nimh batterys in parallel, so you could try 2 cell li-po batterys if you have a li-po charger. If I had the batterys dimensions it would help me.

I google searched and found the dimensions to a battery similar to the ones you have so two of theses http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s..._2S1P_20C.html should work and it would give you 10000mAhs of capacity .

Ok. Thanks. I think I will look into this. It looks like it would fit nicely. Should be a lot more powerful.
