2 facts I learned along the way:
-lipo packs should stay cool. The warmer they get, the sooner you'll see a decrease in capacity and performance.
-even just a 1P 3700 FP setup does not get warm at all in my truck, but a Maxamps 8000 setup in the same place does noticeably get warm. Not hot, just warm. Makes you think. They claim the same discharge rate, and even have more than twice the capacity. Still they get warmer.
As for cycle life, a good Lipo should outlast any Nickel cell without problems.
And Patrick, how long do you think will it take you to get "a few hundred cycles" on a pack? Just curious.
