Are you guys using the same charging/discharging techniques and rates for the IP's?

the first charge I posted earlier, but yes, all the same as the ib3800. the cells came off a little cold. so I am not sure i got a good charge. I am going to run linear charge this weekend for all my cells so should have a better idea how the IPs will compare with IBs

i charged all packs at a 6A linear charge for all my packs. ran the IPs on the first qual. they seam to be punchier then the IBs but fell off around the 6min mark. i ran the same motor setup all day. the IPs came of the charger cooler then IBs by about 5-10 degrees. may need a higher delta. if you can take advantage of them up front, then it maybe worth the drop off.

i agree. I need some as well. but not in a big hurry. Still trying to figure out IB or IP. I like the way the IPs ran this weekend. The track uses jlap and posts results on the jlap website, but it is all screwed up for yesterday. Until I can see the lap time, i am not sure how the pack gettting soft affected the lap times.
