Default HOLY COW!

No, sorry Brandon, I don't mean you. LOL

I just put a pack of the mid 1.18s together for testing since I had two of the same laying around and one will go to the drawing next month. And low and behold! I did a cycle on the pack charged at 6 amps with a peak of .05, cool down of 18 minutes and discharge at 30 amps and this is what I got from the readings on a Turbo GFX:

Avg Volt: 7.128
RIR: 84

THIS IS INSANE! that's higher then what the label states!! its 1.188 on the richter scale! and the RIR is so low it's not even funny! considering that the packs have been soldered so resistance should move up some but taking 84 divided by 6 cells and I've got 14 RIR including the resistance from the solder.! Man! I'll be running this pack on Sunday!


I don't know who the lucky guy is going to be when we do the drawing next month but whoever he is, I suggest you not race him. LOL!

P.S. just thought you'd like to know.
