What brand are those 35 dollar 4200mAh packs? depending on HOW stickpacks are build, they can be soldered end to end or connected with a shitty little piece of thin metal (those are a big nono) what i like about side by side packs is that you can take out a cell that goes bad. with soldered inline packs, this is hard to do. There are tubes available though, that you can use to put in cells and they will connect thru some sort of zilver paste. seems to work like a charm too.

Integy usually uses IB or GP cells. they are okay.

I bought some GP3300's that produce 1.213V@20A load, that are good numbers.

If you take 100A out of those little buggers, it's voltage will most likely drop till 1V or lower. Rule of thumb is that a good cell can deliver app. 100W

36 cells on that setup is not asking for trouble electronicall wise. It more is a problem to keep the driveline in tact.

about the quality of the cells;

under 100-150A load, nothing seems to beat the GP3300, with those kinds of setups, you won't notice a .01V difference per cell. Again, you really don't want a 70 mph truck to jump with.. And if you do.. PLEASE make a movie, i wouldn't mis it for anything in the world!

For bashing i would take 26 cells.

there is a difference in need for speed for speedruns and bashing.
