I'll throw up the idea also, that how would you low volatge monitor all those cells in the 2000mah setup? I like using my cellshield lipo-saver as a backup to the LVC in my mamba max just incase... Seems that only using the ESC's LVC would be chancy with that many cells. I had my BEC LVC set to 3.2v per cell (9.6v) in my 3S setup and the cellshield set to 2.9 as a backup. First run of the pack and the cellshield stopped the car first. 3.4v-3.3v-2.9v, this was a total of 9.6v so the ESC LVC should have kicked out too but... if it had gone a few more tenths I would have damaged a brand new pack.

I've ran the pack a few more times and it's starting to level out on the bottom end, but the point is lipo's are expensive and I wouldn't want to run the risk of killing any. I'd go with the 1p setup and use a good low voltage devise.
