Whatever low voltage your comfortable with per cell x 8

I usually set my cutoffs at 3.2 volts per cell = 25.6 volts for an 8S pack. But I almost never run to the LVC.

Edit: My Grimracer packs have printed on battery. Never discharge below 3.4V volts per cell.

My Grimracer packs have printed on battery. Never discharge below 3.7 volts per cell.That is totally silly, the nominal voltage of a LiPo i s 3.7 volts. Most RTR ESCs have cutoffs around 3.0 volts. Either that's a missprint or it means resting voltage, not LVC.

Sorry I misread package. It states "Never discharge below 3.4V per cell"

I ran one mill lap and 6 race laps using this single 4200 mah pack in my LSH Whiplash. Pack came back puffy and very warm. My Hyperion charger showed 20% remaining and 3.7 voltage percell while recharging. Switched to larger 5000mah pack for less heat and less voltage drop for faster speeds near end of 6 LAP heat race.

Carge them both in 2P at same time so the work togeather, may take 2 or 3 cycles to see if they will match up.
