Yes guver, the venom batteries are holding up just fine comparatively. The only difference being that the venom batteries are 20c and this dynamite is 25c but that should be irrelevant towards this I would assume.

The Velinion speed control i am running on the car has a low voltage detection setting that I run every time of course. With that said, i guess the question is...what are the chances that the particular detection can fail and/or react too late?

As there are a couple different kinds of low voltage protection, what would you perceive to be the safest one?  And would you advise me to perhaps use a different kind that what I am already using?
