Just a question, do the LiFEPO technology needs a cut-off "take care" or something ?, i mean, how low the voltage can go without screw the pack ?,

thanks !
I'll get them out to you on Monday. Also you do not need a cutoff. You can run them down without fire hazard! I bought a pair of 2500mAh 2S LiFe hard packs (I think they're 25C), with the intent on testing them with starter boxes and for buggy/truggy use. Additionally, I'm tinkering with the idea of ordering some 5S LiFe packs in the 5000 to 6000mAh range for buggy/truggy racing, sans cutoff. The interesting thing is the LiFe cells tend to be smaller than the LiPO cells of similar capacity.
Regarding the D8... Unless you need the hump pack, I have what you need!
