a123system batt and charger

[MetalMan]

These cells can actually take 60amps continuously without too much of a problem (they do get quite hot, but that only shortens their lifespan). Here's the graph I am referring to:

Remember that a 2v cutoff is recommended. These cells can do something like 120amps in quick peaks, so in 2p form you should be able to get ~200amp peaks (assuming your wiring and connectors can handle that).

I'm running 5s2p in my Revo (16.5v, 4600mah) with a 7XL and Mamba Max, and it's an awesome setup. I'll run the same battery and ESC in my 1/8 buggy. Just so they wouldn't have to share, I ordered another Dewalt 36v pack this morning to make another 5s2p setup.

what are you using to charge these? i was looking at the a123 web site and i think i could use the 2s2p 4600 packs , 2 packs and the adjustable voltage module and charger for $300 would that work good for a hvmaxx 4.5 system?
