Yep, very true Chris. Not sure what esc he plans to run. Good to consult the esc manufacturer before doing anything.

Cool thanks. I have some mini Deans sitting here I'm going to use.
thanks

It's a Turnigy 80Hv Marine esc. It already has the lead with a resistor for a "No Spark" just need to do connectors on the pack side. If I were using Bullets the additional leads wouldn't be needed.

Ok, so you just hook the main pos lead up to the batt and then use the smaller neg wire to charge the caps? So you only need a small wire coming of the neg side of the a123 packs? Or do you want a wire coming off both neg and pos?

I have not shrank the a123 packs yet, so I will wait till you reply!

gimpygolden 07.22.2009 12:27 PM

Has to be small lead off both main leads because I'm using deans 2" should do me.
check here look at Deans diagram

if I were using bullets I would just hook up the Pos lead and the small black lead to charge the caps then the Neg lead to run.

Ok, soldering them right now...

lincpimp 07.22.2009 08:00 PM

Ok, here 2 of the 5s a123 packs... I put 2 layers of shrink on them, as you sent me a ton of it, and I think it will protect them better. And the small charge wires are visible as well. I put them off the cells, not the main plug, as it will be easier to change the main plug if you ever need to.

Lookin' good.
Double wrapin' to keep things safe is always a good idea, as I'm sure you know in your line of work Pimp.
Actually single wrap will work better for me so the packs can sit closer together in my Raptor e550 as it's already a tight fit. Thanks for lookin out for your favorite battery cells though.

Awesome job and I know you loved every minute of it.
Thanks

gimpygolden 07.22.2009 08:15 PM

By closer together I'm thinking like this
.OOOOO=
OOOOO=


Offset would be the word I'm lookin for

gimpygolden 07.22.2009 08:35 PM

Here ya go Linc, spent the better half of about an hour working on the graph with my head throbbing...

From the looks... Pack #1 seems to be doing a lot better than #2, but does the #2 pack appear to be..... puffed from the data?

lincpimp 07.23.2009 12:33 AM

Does not look too bad to me. Has either pack physically puffed again? Puffed, then goner down? What lvc are you running to. I would be more worried about the fact you got 4400mah back in one pack and 4530 in the other...
