    Really cool battery setup from MAXAMPS

    I saw this today http://www.maxamps.com/Lipo-MV5250-Pack.htm

    Very cool battery pack that makes reconfiguring cells a snap!

    Individual cells that you can replace if one goes bad.

    Just thought it was neat and i would share!

    Enjoy!

      Ray, I think these have been out for a while and the only thing I don't care for is the price
      $50 per cell
      so to run 6s2p would cost $600!

        5250mAh@60C = 315A on 12AWG ?
        for 6S means 12 extra plugs
        Small feed wire, lotsa resistance.
        Probably ok for the intended car market, but not suitable high yield applets

        These were discussed here over 4 months ago when first released.

          Says 60c "surge" which i take as burst............most likely 30-40c continuous.

                    if you add 5 more cells it chost you $200 more or so it say on the site if you scroll down to "Additional Cells".
                    still $500 for 6S2P is over my budget

                          all of those connectors just give you more places for failure! I don't like these multi packs at all! Just a gimmick in my opinion and overpriced at that!
