RE: tp 1010

Hello Kingtight

As Charles has said the newer revision of the 1010 will charge A123 Cells to the proper voltage. Our cells can be charged safely to 4.2V / cell but there is certainly loss in...

Hello All,

Sorry I was not able to Pipe in earlier, but I don’t spend a great deal of time on the Forums over the weekends. The VPX packs from Black and Decker do indeed have our newest 18650...

RE: A123Racing Charger Questions

10A is a lot of current, that is one of the primary advantages to our cells technology. There is no advantage to charging with a lower amp rating, our packs are spec’d to...

RE: A123Racing Charger Questions

Hey CLofland,

There is no problem charging off of a car battery. I would not recommend the cigarette lighter though as they sometimes have a 5A fuse built into them. If you search online you...

RE: Melting the heatshrink and softening the solder on my 3s1p pack

Hey,

That's a nice rig!!! I think that a 3S2P would certainly be a good upgrade. There is plenty of space on the chassis, and you will see better performance and runtime.

RE: Melting the heatshrink and softening the solder on my 3s1p pack

Hello Snell,

If you are heating the cells enough to cause things to start to melt then you are definitely using them at or beyond their 30C rating. Installing a 3S2P pack would most certainly...

RE: lathe a123 cells to save weight

Red has the right info here. Our chemistry is what makes the cell heavier; the aluminum canister contributes very little to the higher energy density of the cell. I would look in another direction to...

RE: How do A123s Fail?
