ACEPow 4s1p Hardcase battery

[snellemin]

I recently purchased a ACEPow 4s1p hardcase battery. Sure, some will say that I wasted my money on an a unknown. But wouldn't it be nice to see what the unknown is capable off? I wanted the battery to have wires coming out of the casing, instead of those goofy 4mm bullets deal. It got build and send to me. It did come with the clone Deans connector and the fit and finish is just not there. It didn't come with an overkill 8awg power wires, but rather 12awg. I cracked the baby open and found 4 Gens Ace cells in there. I still haven't found anytime to actually run the battery in any of my vehicles. First it's just too hot and second family time. I did however run 1 cycle with my charger through it in my hot garage.

Garage temp 97.9F
Battery temp after first charge 98.5F. After 20A discharge rate, temp 111F.

Second charge 98.5F at 20A and 5025ma went back in.

Resistance of the cells 1.1, 1.1, 1.3, 1.1mOhm.

Shuffing 20A into the pack doesn't raise the battery temp. It's getting the amps out, raises the temps.

When I get a chance to run the battery, it will have the EC5 connector in place.
