you are really running a chance in frying a controller when you run it on or near it's max cell count or even voltage......example..last spring...I was running a 1895 Micro controller in my emaxx.......I just put in 2 freshly charged 6 cell gp 3300 packs wired in series in my emaxx.....and started to run it...it went 5' then nothing at all.....so I contacted Bk in germany...cause that's who I got it from a few years back...and they said to send it in......after they received it..and tested it..they got back to me and they tested it and said that I some how managed to send 123 amps thru my 95 amp controller....and that was only on 12 cells.....which is 6 cells under the limit of the controller and a total of 7.2 v under the max it could handle....and I fried it......the one thing I just don't understand is why does everybody want to push thier luck and try to run the max # of cells or volts the controller can handle......in my opinion you guys are just asking for trouble or problems or even both......sorry I had to vent......but hey...it's your $......I'm just waiting for some one to come on here and say..OH NO, I FRIED MY CONTOLLLER I THINK...BY RUNNING (X) # OF CELLS....do you guys thinks it's fried.....well DUH....probably is....enough said I think (Neweuser...it's not directed at you)....just tired hearing the same Q's
