60C really?

[lutach]

You know, if the MA packs I had for some reason burst into flames, I would definitely say this thread wouldn't be here at all.

I usually jump on crazy claims such as a ESC that can do 400A to the one that states 780A. Can they prove it, no why, because it's impossible for such little devices to put out that kind of AMPs. I tell everyone if a ESC has a real rating use it a the max continuous burst which means that will be what you see on hard acceleration and that's all. Most ESC will average from 5-20A for 1/8 scale racing depending on the voltage and correct motor used (Gearing and everything else as well). Now for a pack to claim 60C surge, I'll use that as a max burst figure that's all even if it's a number I'll never see in my RC life time. After I get a project out of the way, I'll start focusing more on my full scale electric race car and I'll show everyone what a real cell that can put out over 1500A continuous and 2 second bursts of over 3000A looks like. Now this cell has a 2V cut off and it will discharge at 240A and hold over 3V at 90% DOD. The numbers mentioned of the cell are not false as it's being used by the military.
