I know you guys arn't the least bit interested in Trivia. But I will post it anyway.

I decided to compare the Raw RC3600's to the Raw IB4200's at a 20 Amp discharge current.

As expected the IB4200's had a higher average voltage over the full discharge cycle.

But, It was a lot closer than I expected for one of the IB4200 packs. The first IB4200 pack was only 1.7 mV per cell higher than the RC3600's And they were 17.7 mV per cell higher on the other IB4200 pack. And again the Lower capacity IB4200 had the Higher average voltage.

Of course the IB4200's had about a %30 longer runtime.

I know I need to say this every message because people still insist on telling me what I am saying and not looking at what I am writing.

The IB4200's will have FAR supperior performance on the track. Simply because they have a higher capacity. A higher capacity means they wont be discharged as much by the end of the race. And since they are not discharged as much they will have a notably higher average voltage over the whole race time. And this higher average voltage means higher average Lap Times.
