Your so out of it:D You must be one of those rich little kids that your parents work hard to support your habits. Try working for it, and then you'll understand mypost. If you can afford $1000 worth of batteries, that's fine, YOU ARE THE MAN, all i was saying was that it's a bit to high for...

I remember when you were so happy with your SLA's on your trike. My post is not towards people like you that have $500 to waste on lipo's before they know how to charge them :lol: :wink: If they are so great (and i see you recommend them to everyone, they are even in your sig, why did you...

I think the 15ah and 20ah a123 prismatics are better quality cells for $2.50 ah: are going to die out very soon. Even if they are great cells, most newbies and new comers to the forum (and some older ones) cannot afford that kind of a price for batteries, (if you read some posts, only the guys...

So are you saying that this bike at half throttle is the same as the trike at full ?

Hey Kim have you compared the info from your trike ?, like speed etc. because from that video (above) that doesn't look anywhere as fast or picks up speed as fast as your brushed 1000 watt motor on your trike. Maybe it's just the camera position, or it could just be me :D

I haven't read most of the threads on here, but on trying to gather enough info on my next build (motor and battery wise) i decided to go through a lot of the threads, and came across this one. and i cannot understand how people with these kind of comments have many friends :roll: Maybe your...

:lol: :lol: I couldn't stop laughing for 10 minutes when i read that :lol: :D and i still laugh every time i think about it :D How long were you stuck to the pole for ? :D Nice build Metallover, I'm going to order one of these 9c motors for one of my choppers, (haven't decided from...

If that's what you believe, Try it, And then let us know. If your right, you will become a GOD :D

Are you getting cells separately (a 3.7v cell) to wire them in parallel, or do you mean packs to wire in parallel. If you meant you are getting cells, where are you buying single cells ? I've seen single cells for sale, but they cost as much as a pack does.

Nice, I've always wanted to build a trike for my wife, the problem is the distance between the back wheels, (to get through doors) I have read (i think) all dogman's posts to see how he handles his, and what type of motor and batteries he uses. it's good to see another one of these being done...

Nice, and you still have room if you decide to add more batteries, i like the way you angled the box (instead of just making it a plain square box) makes it look nice.

Maybe i didn't explain myself right, and i would like to get more info before i blow my new batteries up :D What i want to do is get a 7S pack and a 6S pack and hook them up in series for my application. but i also want more amps, so the 7S pack will be paralleled with 2 other 7S packs to...

Sorry amberwolf, I must have been posting as you were posting :D Yah, i think charging to 4.0 or 4.1 would be best, but i still like the 7S and 6S idea better then 3x5S I know i'll have more power then i have now with my SLA's, as the lipo keep their voltage up better then then SLA's. You...

I found my answer, and for anyone else wondering the same thing, Yes you can always keep the balance connectors connected to the other packs, since the main pack wires are always connected also when paralleled, unless (of course) you want to balance each pack separately, which i don't see a need...

I must be missing something then, because at 13.5 or as you say 13.6 = 54.4v for sla's charged, and lipo 13"s charged (4.2v) would be 54.6, that's pretty even. 3x5's fully charged (4.2) would be 65v, discharging down to 3.0 volts 45.v (to be safe) would not work with my controller, one, because...
