hi ron, i recently purchased 3 kinetix stage 3 packs. the first 4 or 5 charges all packs charged quite well, peaking with about 3600-3700 mah. after about 6 runs 2 of the packs are peaking at about 3100mah-3200mah but peaking with good voltage. each pack has been discharged after each run at 20A on my eagle CDC. i do not have a equalizer tray so i can not equalize my packs. can you please point me in the right direction. thankyou

Team-RTR - What charger are you using? What peak detect are you using? If you want , shoot me an email to info@kinetixrc with your # and I will call you so we can talk about it.

I'm planning on picking up some Kinetix Stage 3 packs soon. I was wondering, do they come with an extra layer of clear shrink wrap over the cells and labels?

Thanks

I notice there are only Stage II cells available on the web site... any chance of other batches being run soon?

Kinetix is now switching to the new IB3600 cell. They will be ready around February 17th.

Thant's very interesting, do you already have some numbers to compare them to the GP3300? will it still be the same range of prices?
Thanks.

Gilles

Wow, those cells must be pretty impressive for Kinetix to make a complete switch. Are we seeing an end to GP's dominance in the battery department.

I might just have to wait and go for the IB3600 then.

ATOMIC: thanks for letting me know. I'll remember that come ordering time.

The cell is absolutly awsome , super low IR , run time 430-450 and higher , same voltage as the GP3300. I think I am going to go to 35 amp discharge rate , it seems to weed out the week cells . The GP3700 is also coming , but I dont plan on doing them at this point. IR is higher , run time is higher also (a plus) , and voltage seems to be the same . Some of the #'s on these cells floating around the web were 480 , 1.185 . I dont believe that this is a consistant #. Probably just a couple of test cells that were hand picked. Anyway nobody will be disapointed with the IB3600 . Low IR = Power.

Ron, Is it true that the IB cells are a bit heavier than the GPs?
