BTW I am very Excited about this release. High Voltage.
They were Desire packs, 40C discharge rate, 5000mah.

They didn't puff, seemed fine after cooling. We balanced them and then did some more testing. Completely destroyed the rear tires in about 2 mins on pavement. We took a picture with a FLIR and the tire temps were hitting 120C+ ... they just shredded.

Was a lot of fun.

I'm off to China on Monday to approve the motor and get it into production! Should know in about a week when the first deliveries will be ready.

Real Soon Now.
