Yes, you are very correct in your notings. Thats the thing, with bashing the power duty is bursting.
First, the size is overall the same size as my 5s2p A123 pack, although the weight is a little over half the weight of the battery pack.
As for charging, i have my BK Precision power supply that can bring it up to the voltage of the pack at any current rate it set it at, it's completely programmable. (If i simply connected the M1 pack to the caps, the tabs would disappear ;) Then, i simply couple it in with the battery pack, and put a very short connector between it and the controller, ~.5 inch, and maybe shorten up the controller input lead length, to completely get rid of voltage spikes due to inductance/EMF.
I would be able to charge with the caps coupled to the pack.
And yes, i forgot to mention it, you would have longer runtime (if the small added weight would not offset) because of the Ah retention. Most likely longer cell life too, maybe not enough to justify the Cap's cost in the first place; but the caps are rated at 500,000 duty cycles. :)
Im thinking the smaller 120 farad caps would do the job too, and the bank would weight only 232 grams. Each cell is 51mm long, and 26mm diameter. This cap is rated at 500 amps.
I really think this would provide very high power levels, very, how do you say... like hooking up a 12V car battery up to your model. Let's say, very 'ROBUST PERFORMANCE'. I've always wanted to try this.
