    using hardcase packs in boats

    Was looking at the Turnigy 2s packs and noticed the 30c hardcase packs are
    $5.00 cheaper then the equal soft pack so if i ordered 6 packs you save $30.00.
    My question is does it matter running them in a boat or could you take the case off and reshrink wrap them?

    If they fit, why would you take the case off....use them as is.

        Thats good I think they fit better because the wires come out the end rather then off to the side.

          The problem I had using hard case packs in a P Spec JAE was the size of the connectors and having to have twice as many to run 4 cells they get warm and cause a loss of performance.

            I've been running hardcase packs since I started running FE in June, I'm going to crack them open this winter and re-wrap them in clear heat shrink for 2 reasons:

            1) Unnecessary weight
            2) When they get wet you can't see if there is any water trapped inside.
