Low Voltage Setting

[Steven Vaccaro]

Looking to see what you guys run for a low voltage setting? I run 3.2 volts. Is there an ideal setting?

kinda depends on the amp draw...I've got mine set for 3.3v per cell

i usally leave my at factory default as i dont run my batteries low enough for the lvc to kick in.normaly
i think even with cheaper packs like the turnigy/zippy these days they hold there voltage very well under load,i dont think lvc is a good thing in this case as you can use more than 90% capacity and still not hit the lvc (assuming a moderate amp draw).

I use 3.3 volts in my standard hulls. But I use a seperate LVC device like the Dimension Engineering CellShield. The LVC that most speedos have now monitors over all pack voltage, not each individual cell. Much better protection! In my SAW boats I run no LVC device as there is no way the packs will get that low. Too much heat in the mtr/esc for such short run times. They come back to shore pretty quick!

I run 3.4v Wilmer sets his at 3.5v and maks the cells last a long time. Wilmer has some old 4100 Neu packs that are still good.

3.2 here

3.2

3.2 as well.

3.2V in my cars but they never reach it. I don't think I have ever hit cutoff voltage before I finished the race, got bored or broke something lol

3.2v

The Castle Ice and the Dimension Engineering ones are default @ 3.0v. I use mines at 3.2 and Kintec has their DE set up at 3.3v
