Yes, but a pair of 7800s would be more bitchin'

I primarily like the higher AH packs because you can charge them at a higher rate. Once the CC part of the charge is done (or just after 30-45 minutes) they've recovered enough charge that if you are really aching to bash again you can take them off the charge and run them for a while.

On a side note, how fast can we charge the 5200s and other RC-M lipos? Is it the same 1C rule as other lipos or can we push them to 2C? The notice that came with my replacement Maxamps lipos said they could be charged at 2C if it was a balance charge. Not like I believe a word they say, but if we needed to have a lipo in a jiffy would it be OK to crank up the amps?
