Amps drawn from a Li-Poly
I have some 3 cell Li-Poly batteries 2800mamps that are rated at 6amps draw with 9 amps burst. Can anyone help:
How realistic are specifications, I am assuming I should be somewhat cautious with Li-poly's? I am used to abusing NiCads!
What will happen if I draw excessive amps, say double?
If I have an application requiring 20amps, would I be correct in assuming that I can put three of my packs in parallel.
Is there a book along the lines of brushless motors and liPoly batteries for idiots?
Thanks in advance.

RE: Amps drawn from a Li-Poly
Oh, they're li-ion, which is different than li-poly. I'd believe their rating, and yes, you can hood 3 in parallel for the 20amps you need.
