well, i asked on here what controller to use with the LMT on 14 cells and i got a lot of votes for the MM. so that's what i chose... and on some trial runs w/14 cells this past w/e, it did get warm - as did the batts. the motor was cool, as i suspected it would be.

i'm also concerned as i'll have to gear up to about 51/20 to get the 40 mph speeds i'm looking for. i may run 5s with the a123 packs someday, and i'll most likely have to get a higher quality controller. right now i'm leaning towards a MGM, but i may be able to hold off long enough until the tekin comes out (not even holding my breath for the MMM).
