So I did my first run with the 35C packs, and my first run with lipo packs period.

holy crap, holy crap, holy crap

I AM IN LOVE!

I swear if I never knew better I would of thought I was running a 1521 motor on my 7s2p A123 pack! Keep in mind this is the exact same setup as before, same gearing, whatnot. It is such a jump in performance over a 7s1p pack, like I can wheelie at almost any speed! It's insane! I am doing the same with less than 3/4 throttle vs. 100% throttle over the A123 pack, punch wise.

This is the first run, and Hyperion says it takes 5-10 cycles to reduce cell Ri, and still over the next 100 cycles as well (although to a lesser extent). Each 3s pack has a rated 0.004Ohm Ri, or 0.008Ohm for 6s... that is the same Ri as one M1 cell! I don't have my 720i charger in yet, so I used my power supply to charge them up using a 4.1v/cell CV voltage, so I am most likely not seeing the full performance of these bad boys.

Notice the packs voltage holding ability! 3.7v/cell @ 100 amps, yikes. That's 23C discharge! It barely gets below 22volts for bloodin sakes!
