HELP: Sub C Cells to Lipo

[Tony]

Hi guys.
Changing from 16 cells in two eight cell packs of Nmhi sub c batteries. 19.2 volts total to Lipos . What is the Lipo equivialents?

Boat setup: NEMESIS 7XL MOTOR AND A HACKER NAVY MASTER 70 ESC.

A 4 or 5s lipo pack will be what you are looking for.

NiMH
16 X 1.2 = 19.2 volts

Lipo
4s X 3.7 = 14.8 volts

5s X 3.7 = 18.5 volts

6s X 3.7 = 22.2 volts

You will see about a 20% increase in amps when changing to lipos using the same voltage with this motor, if you were using top quality NiMHs. It will be more if they were cheap NiMHs.
