The Extreme's cool so much better than the Prolites that I dont think its a problem.

FYI, I weighed my 10s 5000 and it was 1204 grams, which is about 20 grams lighter than two seperate 5s 5000 packs. About 80 grams heavier than 5300's.

Interesting. Would be simpler than dealing with two packs, fewer connectors = less weight.

My question would be regarding cooling. Would it be better to have two 5S packs separated by an inch or so for better cooling?

Down sides would be charging 10S could be a problem for some people and a bad cell would take out the entire 10 cells rather than just 5.

Still, it's a nice option to have.
