Please vote for one!!! - 03.07.2008, 04:55 PM

Hi all,

I would like to know form all of you guys and girls, which system would you prefer:

1: High Volt (up to 14S lipos)
2: Low Volt (up to 6S lipos)

Here are just a few inputs: 200A and 6S (25.2 volts fully charged (4.2v per cell), 22.2 volts nominal(3.7v per cell)) equals 4440 watts now 110A and 12S (50.4 volts fully charged (4.2v per cell), , 44.4 volts nominal (3.7v per cell)) equals 4884 watts. Now those might be Max AMPs and to handle the 200A controller one would need the highest quality and capacity lipo pack to get a good 20-30 minutes of run time (Not sure how long it'll last in race condition). Now with 110A a good quality 2200 or 2500mAh packs will give the same run time. Keep in mind you can still use 6S lipos with the 12S controller. Please vote 1 for HV or 2 for LV and post a comment of what you think.

Regards.

I vote for: 1 HV

I for example have used 44.4 volts and was really happy. I also used 10S A123 and 10S TP with much enjoyment. My set up is: Schulze 40.160, Neu 1521/1Y. With the 1521/1Y I'm using 6S lipos. So you see, even though my controller can handle 14S lipos I can still use 6S. Now if I wanted more torque and run less AMPs all I have to do is throw my 1521/1.5Y and 10S lipos. The choices for motors and batteries in a HV system is more flexible then with a 6S system.

+1 for the HV

Another plus for using batteries with 2000-2500mah is that the cells are shorter and can be packaged easier, plus the a123 users would beifit in 10-14s 1p battery configurations, compared to 2p.

+1 for HV.

Why are you asking, btw? Are you trying to decide which one to produce? I thought you were already working on an HV model.

Here: http://www.rctech.net/forum/showthre...=192048&page=8 post #238 is where it started. I'm still waiting for my scratch built 14S controllers to be done. I'm just wondering what a company with skills would be able to do.
