Thanks Keith, I get it now, Not sure why they wouldn't just build 6s packs??? I doesn't even make sence for the company as it would be more labour involved??? Oh well... It is, what it is....

Hey Dave sometimes companies need to do this to meet shipping regulations. There can only be so much mah and "C" rating shipped.

Has to do with international shipping regulations and max pack capacity. However I have 2 Giant Power Lipos here that are 6s 6000mAh that are not split....who knows.

I have been looking at a lot of different lipos as I have a lot to purchase. This is is the first instance where the 6s has been a split pack. I like the lipos, pricing is fair and am considering them but the split pack has me thrown. I think I am going to go with them but there must be a better explanation than shipping restrictions if the other guys are getting away with it?

Dinogys are manufactured by Giant Power. Buy the local ones.

I've actually seen 4 different labels on the same pack. I have sometimes even pulled off the Dinogy sticker and then found a nother label underneath that has a different name on it

Thanks for the explanation Chris, very much appreciated!

No problem buddy

I too have pulled stickers off of dinogy packs to find giant power stickers or something like that.

Here's another thing to throw in there...
The connection between the two 3s packs looks quite small....

Would this not add to the total internal resistance???

The wires are short enough that it's inconsequential. There is a bullet connector there, but it's really just to meet shipping regulations. You could solder the bullet connector if you wanted and pretend it was never there.

I'm pretty sure I explained to you guys over email or phone call why the stickers are there. Giant power doesn't make dinogy and you will never find a giant power sticker under a dinogy label and vice versa. Those labels have nothing to do with any brand on the market today.

Hey guys...

I've been away with work for a while and when I have been home, I've either been working on my daughters boat or doing house/garden stuff and of course, spending actual time with my family....

On the plus side, I did manage to fix the Turnigy LiPo! Not sure if the fix is good as I've not run it yet???
I am going to get some new Dinogy packs but right now, I don't have much time to get to the water so I'm gonna hold off for a while....

I'm about to go on vacation with the girls and I would take my HPR but it's all seawater and I'm not sure what it'll do to it???

Any thoughts on that???

Anyway, I need to get back to painting my daughters boat!

Bye for now....

I've had no problems yet running my mystic in the sea. After the run I've flushed the cooling lines including water jackets with fresh water using a syringe. In addition, I've wiped old grease from the flexes and regreased them immediately after the run and they are like new, no rust or anything on them.

Just try to keep your boat dry from inside, salt water and electronics aren't the best friends you know.

There might be more to this, and I hope more experienced would chime in as 4 times out of 5 it's sea where I run my cat and I'd love to know more how to avoid potential damage from salt water.
