Grenade, do you usually leave the tekin switch turned on while running to
pull 300-400mah out?
Yes, switch is on for the 1/12 scale on an 8 min run.
My car is the same speed, laps ....... with the booster and since I have one ESC that has never seen a receiver pack and not failed, think it is a very safe way to go.
I have watched some of my life packs peak at up to 7.4 volts and believe that is why I've had the failures that I have had. So if I were to run a receiver pack (Lipo or LiFe) I would also run a voltage regulator (or diode's) to reduce it.
