SMC LIPO BATTERY THREAD

Leaving packs fully charged will damage them. We do mention this in the instructions that came with the packs.

On my equipment I never was able to see a difference between being easy on a pack for a few cycles then doing a full amp cycle.

This is also a reason I recommend guys who do run until the LVC kicks in to check the voltage of each cell to make sure they are above 3.4v in fact I think around 3.5 to 3.55v is even better. With lower IR packs they will discharge deeper before the LVC kicks in. This is why it's best to measure the voltage of the cells and not trust your LVC.

No we don't offer the male connectors with the packs. We offer low resistance male connectors on our site.

Hey guys, i just finished building a sct410 with hobbywing sct pro and 4700 and need to put in some good strong batteries. I see lots of guys running these smc 's so I went to the site and see the race formula 7200 are pre-order , are they out of stock or are they made per order? if out of stock, any idea when there will be more?

With Deans connectors or any connector for that matter you need to make sure it fits tight. If it plugs in easily then your not getting a good connection. On Deans you can take the springy blade on the male connector and make it rounder so it applies more pressure.

Pre-orders can only ship when both items are ready. We have this printed on our home page.

I don't have any new Deans here to do the test. The condition of the connector has allot to do with the resistance it will provide.

You can check out some info on the motor here.

Can't wait to switch over to SMC batteries in my B4.2 as I did in my D8 Tekno. If they make a similar difference I will have a huge smile on my face.

Yea I didn't look too hard for the info on the shipping...not a huge deal. So it sounds like it is possible that my order (again placed just before I posted) might ship off of your recent shipment. That would be great.
