    Hi people, I have got a Crystalyte 36-48V 40A 12FET controller which is currently connected to a 12s Lipo pack. I wonder if it was possible to give it a 16s Lipo pack? Is that too risky or my controller simply won't work? Thanks. -- zooz

    Battery pack made of clear acrylic (pics)

    Hi guys, Just wanted to share some pictures of my new battery box made of clear acrylic. I believe sheets are 3mm thick. I used Tensol-12 cement for glueing the acrylic, works very well.
