Default Volcano EPX PRO higest battery voltage?

Whats the higgest voltage battery you could put in the Volcano EPX PRO brushless before the esc or something cuts out. I heared from some people it could go up to 12volts while others said only 8.4volts. Whats the truth???

I have the very same esc and motor that comes with the EPX PRO's. I've used it with 12 cell NICD's however when I used some higher quality cells (12), it started cutting out.........10 of the same cells cut out again

To play it safe i don't recomend going over 8.4v. Yeah you can go higher but you run the risk of damage.
