Has anyone done the math yet on those packs?
150c 6.5a pack = 975amps true c
@14,8v = 14.430watts!!!

We are well aware of MA's inflated ratings here at RC-M, there is a whole thread about the non watercooled packs with the same ratings.

Not only is 150C/975A an inflated rating but who has a setup pulling that much power that could test it?

In reality if we can get packs that are capable of handling 200A bursts and 100A continuous it would be adequate for 99% of the setups out there. Some boat guys might be pushing more than that on large speed run boats but thats about it.

Not to mention, who here believes a 12awg wire can support that kind of current?

Actually, if we figured up the resistence on the small leads they use on these over rated packs, the total amp load by dead shorting would be less than 975 amps.

Hmmmm.................these cells can survive the dead short test?

Anyone wanna try it? LOL

It was a typo, not true 150C but true 15C....They just ran with it because their editor doesn't know any better!

...or they forgot that pesky decimal point. Maybe it should have read 15.0C? Or even 1.50C?

your just a hater, now if we had water cooled packs back in the days of sub-c packs that would have been great

maybe max amps is going to invent some flat nicd packs and put the water cooling in them......now thats a great idea

I saw this posted somewhere else...

"While there might be some merit to these watercooled batteries (uhh), I'm going to trump this "innovative" concept with my forthcoming offerings : the Watercooled Prop

But...wait for it...I'll be a rich man when I announce my final achievement : Watercooled Water "

Classic!

Oil is a much safer option for cooling electronics. So how about Oil cooled water.
