Exclamation SMC 20C 11.1V LiPo HArd case 37.74 Wh - 10.09.2009, 03:22 PM

guess what i got? i am the first one ever to recieve a BRAND NEW smc LiPo 3400 Mah..... read the title, im not typing it again. but SMC called me and told me i had gotten a brand new battery that isnt even on thier sitwe yet, i have only 1 so far, but anotherone is coming to me by mail, i got it for a replacement, cause i broke one of my other smc packs, and they said " oh im sorry, i thought i shipped you 2 packs, well, here ill ship you out a new one today" so the 2nd pack is on its way, u want pictures?

Forgive me for being a little thick, but what is the big deal with these cells? If it's the Wh figure, that is simply the voltage (11.1) mutiplied by the capacity (3.4Ah).

I sincerely hope your not considering putting those in a Flux because 68 amp constant output isn't gonna be enough with those to fuel the MMM safely

It's a little device that plugs inline between the battery and ESC which measures voltage and current samples. After a run, you hook it to your PC, download the data from it, and look at the graphs. Those graphs will show you how the batteries are performing (by looking at the voltage drop when the current spikes hit). Here's a link: http://www.eagletreesystems.com/MicroPower/micro.htm

Gaa, this thread has ben altered more than a Flaming M.A. thread.

But, we should to be nice to the noob and be supportive regardless his choice of packs I reckon. He'll unfortunately suffer a loss sooner or later and we'll be there to help him.


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.

13 y/o speaking disrespectably 20-50 y/o is what rubbed us up the wrong way I believe, but if you post specific info on your setup and driving style/ terrain etc it would help us understand how your lipos have survived so well- esc settings is useful info too.

Nice trainset btw...
