My goodness im kinda new to brushless/lipo but man Ive never seen a battery this big. Thunder Power "eXtreme V2" 10S Li-Polymer Battery 25C (37.0V/3850mAh) Im sure its not a rare item or anything, just the biggest Ive seen. lol [sm=wink_smile.gif]

Hmm, where did you find 8000 mAh cells? The largest capacity cells in common use are 5000 mAh. 32,000mAh/4P=8000mAh per cell.
.
12s 4p 32k mah

I dissagree, polyquest has 6000mah, which means if enerland makes em, theres prolly more than one company out there with em.

Max Amps also offers 6000-12 000mAh cells with 8000 being one of there selections. It's been around for a long while.

Over on the Rum Runner Forum most of the guys there are running hpr cats excess of 70 miles an hour, lipos of course running 10s 2p PER MOTOR. That many Mah is pretty common in the big electric area...

It is abundantly clear that you guys do not understand LiPo terminology.

Here's a 2s 8000mah 25c pack. I run two of these in my Emaxx.

Yes we understand LiPo terminology. I am NOT interested in how many cells are P'd with in a pack. I am interested in how many packs are P'd to form an overall capacity. Whether I have a 6000mAh pack worth of 4P (1500mAh/pack) or 1P, it makes NO difference.
BB said 10S4P 32000mAh, perhaps it meant 4 paralleled PACKs. A question that we both knew the answer to before it was asked.

All of that is in a 44 inch gas mono hull.
Here's what it looks like: [link=http://homepage.mac.com/wmalvey/Models/PhotoAlbum29.html]Snipers[/link]
That is it's gas cousin along side!!

Even though you are not interested in how many cells are in a pack, many others are. It makes a big diffrerence in competition - something else you are apparently not interested in.

Any how, I do race competitevly. I believe you race under NAMBA and IMPBA. Let me share you something from the NAMBA rule book.
1. POWER SPECIFICATIONS
a) The following motor and cell configurations will be considered official for
electric racing in NAMBA:
M-2 A single .05 motor with brushes, any endbell, ferrite magnets.
Power Limits: 1-4 Ni-chemistry cells are permitted.
N-1 Any ROAR-approved stock .05 motor as defined by current ROAR
parameters. Power Limits: Up to 7.5 Volts nominal, any
chemistry. Maximum of 2 packs in parallel. Maximum capacity of
10,000 mAh.
N-2 Any single motor, any endbell, bearings, and magnets. Power
Limits: Up to 7.5 Volts nominal, any chemistry. Maximum of 2
packs in parallel. Maximum capacity of 10,000 mAh.
O Any amount and/or size of motors, any endbell, bearings, and
magnets. Power Limits: 7.6 to 10 Volts nominal, any chemistry.
Maximum of 2 packs in parallel. Maximum capacity of 10,000
mAh.
P Any amount and/or size of motors, any endbell, bearings, and
magnets. Power Limits: 10.1 to 15 Volts nominal, any chemistry.
Maximum of 2 packs in parallel. Maximum capacity of 10,000
mAh.
