ORIGINAL: asupervee72

here is my question, i have both 3700 mah 25 c 2s packs and 3200 mah 20 c packs, should i be seeing such a drastic difference between the two? When i had my jet boat set up i would run the 3700's just fine but then the 3200s i would always cut short because of one thing or another. I always charged them though even if i only used em for like 2 min, could that have affected them? When i checked the voltage on them after today's run it read 7.6 where as the 3700's read 6.8 but it seemed like the 3700s had more left at the end when i stopped it then the 3200s. I hooked up a brushed motor to one of the 3200s and when i put a load on the motor the voltage would drop quite a bit, about a full volt. Are my cells damaged somehow? anyway to re boost them or something of that sort? Also the 3200's seem to struggle lasting 5 min but the 3700's easily last 10 min plus. anybody have any ideas? oh yeah here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rvbd_DrABZM you should be able to get to the 4 videos i took today and see the one i took when i was using the 3200's that are in question. Posted this in the super tune you sv thread but no response so i'm trying again
It sounds like you are answering your own question..
3700mah 25c packs = 92.5amps cont.
3200mah 20c packs = 64amps cont.
that's almost 30amps difference
