Hammer, nail, head...

I actually tried some MaxAmps packs because I read their voltage was so much better, though only for 40 cycles or so. I'm a pretty decent club driver, and I couldn't see any difference in speed or...

People also use LiPo because the batteries don't fade in performance after 20 cycles. Right now, everybody is talking about LiPo in spite of the fact that they don't have the voltage of NiMH. If we...

The fact that not all industries value voltage over cycle life? Not even all of R/C cares, mostly it's just the stock sedan racers. Plus, a lot of people want safer packs. Encouraging the use of...

The Enerland cells Flightpower uses may have more voltage under load, but the cycle life graphs are pretty bad. It's not apparent how important that voltage under load is for 13.5 or 10.5 racing. ...

Charging at more than 1C will most certainly affect cycle life, even with Kokam cells. It may not blow the pack up, but it's not going to last as long overall before you start to lose capacity. ...

Also, the way LiPo batteries charge, the charge rate won't be at the full rate for long. LiPo charging drops the amperage as the battery nears its full charge. It will drop to well under an amp...
