MaxAmps Voltage Drop Graph

[kulangflow]

You may have seen me start testing some of my MaxAmps packs in a Li-Saver thread, but I thought I'd put the testing in it's own thread.

I have four 2s 6000mAh MaxAmps packs, none of which have more than 20 cycles. Since I've had them, they have always been used with an LVC and balance-charged with either a Hyperion 1210i + LBA10 or a Hyperion 0610iDUO w/ built in LBA10 balancers.

I tested them one by one in my Kyosho Kanai III with a MM/9XL/UBEC. I also tested a True R/C 2s 8000mAh pack just to compare it because it's rated roughly the same as the others. I tried to run for the same amount of time on the same terrain.

Keep in mind that the True R/C pack is new and the MA packs are used, but they haven't been abused, never been over 100F, never been run without an LVC, and can't have more than 20 cycles on them.

MaxAmps 2s 6k:
# 20C Constant(120 amps)
# 30C Sustained(180 amps)
# 50C Burst(300 amps)

True R/C 2s 8k:
Up to 120A continuous
160A Max burst

So, what are your thoughts?


PS. I'll be posting this in the Traxxas forum too, so you might see it twice if you frequent that place too.
