Status: offline 		I'm looking at some 3S lipos... my 2S lipos have a 25C constant... 30-40C burst...

Is there a constant rating that's too high for the electronics? Like is 40C too high for the constant? Is 30C safer?

Or a burst rate too high? I've seen some at 60C, some at 80C...

Status: offline 		Good suggestion... 25C minimum... anything 25C or higher is fine... going under 25C is morebrisk for harm than going higher I was told

Status: offline 		the c rating is the amperage the batteries can deliver. the load in the system is what pulls the amperage. for example, a car starter is low resistence so it pulls alot of amps, yet a small interior light bulb has high resistance and pull very little amps. you could connect a tiny interior bulb to a battery with 5 million cranking amps but as long as the voltage was the proper rating the small bulb only pulls what it needs.......end of story get the highest c rating within your budget and battery tray size-scott
