Default Re: thank you...

Excellent question!

In all honesty, there aren't that much different if you're running stock and the packs don't heat up as much. Our packs runs cooler in most cases because we don't try to overzap them. But when running mod, it is best that you don't shrink wrap them. Now, also bare in mind that when you shrink wrapped them, if you see the numbers on the stickers starting to smudge, that is a sign of too much heat, otherwise if no smudging on the label means the cells are ok. You do want to let it rest 1 1/2 at least between charges. Hope I answered some of your questions. Thanks again.

Happy Racing!

Thanks for the complements. I've been telling my teammate about your company and he's very interested in seeing the cells also.


question:

other then to protect your cells decals...do you recommend shrink wrapping them? i would think the wrapping doesn't allow for proper cooling...

what stock motor do you prefer for TC?
