SMC LIPO BATTERY THREAD

SMC Racing shared a link.
August 21
I'm pleased to announce that SMC is now a sponsor on RC Groups and we have our own section in the Vendors forum.
For those who have been following me on RCtech I had a difference with the people running that site and they even suspended me. I will no longer post on RCtech even if they remove my suspension.
Questions can be asked in the thread son RC Groups or on our Facebook page.

So what does everyone think about this. The pack isn't very old isn't swelled much just the usual filling of the case but never abused. It melted a hole through the bottom of the case like it shorted out internally.

Are the plugs tight and clean? I've read that loose plugs and sometimes cage-type plugs have increased resistance and cause some heat, and with the high current draw of an SCT it can melt the case.
#2487
Which style plugs are you using, solid or birdcage bullets? My guess is that you had a loose connection between the bullets and it heated up the female which then burnt a hole in the bottom of the case.
