Thanks for your input on this one lipomax.

After your 1st post I looked into the polyquest packs and I noticed that they had 4400 packs as well and I thought they might be suitable. I could buy a 2s and a 3s and stick with the 9918 controller, which would keep the cost down.

My only concern here was that the max discharge was 12c which is quite a bit less than the 20c of the Kokams. Obviously it's a bigger capacity cell so I would get 52.8A, but do you think this would be OK for the motor/controller setup?

Also going 6s with this setup only pushes the voltage 0.6v past the 9918 limit, would it still be OK at this level Mike? have you had any experience of problems here.
