12S=44.4v / 1200w=27 amps (1250mah)
6S=22.2v / 1200w=54 amps (2500mah)
3S=11.1v / 1200w=108 amps (5000mah)

Will your lipo's, motor, and ESC be safer and last longer at 27,54, or 108 amps? Simple math.
That is simple enough and others have said the same thing. I can't agree more with you DrKnow65 and finally more people are understanding why I keep bugging for a HV controller, but still we have those who can't get it. You know whats even better. You can use a 2500mAh 12S pack and get close to 1hr of solid cool run time with your math and that's just amazing. I even went the extra step and found the only company willing to do it and they are doing it from scratch. It won't be as good as the other HV controllers for cars, but it'll get the job done. With the Castle HV for cars, it will be just awesome to have a great company who has shown us just awesome products have one as well.
