Thats nice to know!
But I wouldn't recommend charging at 2C all the time. It will reduce the life of the packs. |

Maybe just charge at 2C 2 or 3 times total throughout the pack's life? Like only when you absolutely HAVE to?

I just picked up a couple of the 2S 4000mAh hard case packs.
No soldering problems and they ran very well. I used them last night for qualifiers in my rc10b. They do not have the punch the RCM 5200 mAh packs have but they were good for qualifiers and practice. The Flashlight Strikes Again... |

Yea Zippys are the best for the price, got 4 3s 5k 20c packs and run them in parralel on my revo with a CC/neu 2650, the truck will still wheely if I give it full throtle from 35% throtle on any terrain, haven't really clocked how long the packs last before lvc tho, usually end up drive the car in bursts, 5 mins here 20 there another 5min a day or two later.

5s Zippys -

I've now got three Zippy Flightmax 5s 5000 packs (the new 30c ones). I'm very happy with the performance and the price. One thing I've noticed though, they're consistently taking 4500-4600 mah of charge. Does this make them over-rated?

Ok, tell me this one, my lvc is set for 3.0v so my 5s pack runs down to 15v right? So, when I connect my Hyperion charger why does it trickle-charge up to 18v and then kick in to full charge?

Wouldnt even like to guess- its a box of tricks thats does its own thing
 Bear in mind though that any battery wont drain down right to 0 mah capacity - you would need to hit 0 volts nearly for that to happen I believe, so once the lvc kicks in at ~3.0v theres still gonna be a bit of capacity left in there. |
