Quote "Technically it is not the current draw which kills a pack, its the relationship between current draw voltage drop and heat. If you draw too much current, the voltage will drop off, below 3v per cell, and damage the pack, end of story.

To put this into real life terms, in a particular type of RC Glider, they draw on average 75-100C (yes you heard me correct there!) from their packs, for a maximum of 3 to 4 seconds. This is way over any packs "burst" rating, but as it only happens for a short period of time, the packs do not go below 3v per cell, the result, they do not kill their packs at the rate you would image them to! If they flew for more than 3 or 4 seconds at this rate then yes, the packs would get damaged. " End Quote


!That is all we have been trying to say!
Thanks for confirming that
