Now your flame decal theory is interesting. Do you think we could apply flame decals to the black wires in order to balance out the EPE flow? Any help will better than none, and flame decals would be easier to retrofit. Alot easier to tell the power companies that they do not need to replace 10s of thousands of miles of black wire. And any idiot can stick a sticker on.
Red items don't go faster. Like I said, they just appear to because they are brighter and catch your attention easier. Paint one brick red and another black, throw both of them with equal power and see which one is faster. Ferrari paints their cars red because people don't know better and they are just cashing in on the ignorance.

Flame graphics only work on surfaces exposed to the outside. Inside the vehicle, they make no difference. You need proof? Repeat the brick throwing test outlined above, except replace the bricks with a certain flame-labeled lipo pack and a "regular" non-flame pack. Make sure both weigh the same.

i conducted your test today because it was my day off and being greatly overpaid i was able to but 3 bricks, i painted one red, one black and covered the last one with flame stickers.

after some thinking i decided the most scientific way of testing would be to drop them, (it was less work than throwing them anyway) the red brick hit the ground at .23sec the black one hit the ground at .23 and the one with flames hit the ground at .23sec as well, but what shocked me was the c rating, both the red and black bricks had a c rating of 0, but the one with the flames turned out to 150c, i was shocked at first, do you guys think the sticker could have caused this?
