New Thunder Tiger 65C Constant to 130C Burst!

[YOUNG GUN]

Thunder Tiger 65C Batteries!

Can't believe how Good these LiPos are getting now!

Shame they can't bring the price down a bit!

65C

What were nicads? I dont think they ever had such a high current rating.

[YOUNG GUN]

I don't know what nicads were?

10C?


I just think its amazing how such a small & light weight battery can pump out 150 amps constant - and 300 amps when pushed - a massive amount of wattage output for short periods..

[Richard]

You could weld steel with those amps...

I would be a bit worried if it was a Thunder Tiger...the '130c burst'...brings on the wrong connotations............

I've had 1 or 2 thunder tiger packs in the past and they were ok.. did what they saidl...

Although, having said that - I only like to use lipos upto 80% of their constant C rating... I feel your pushing your luck beyond that in regards to saftey & pack life.

Plus - when flying a model - if you were to use the "Burst" current - you would need a way of knowing when you go beyond the constant C rating - Else your plane will burst into an explosive fireball mid flight - Which would make excellent footage for onboard camera videos - as mentioned in the other topic.

LOL I was getting confused here, I thought there was a hole new range of barries that I didnt know about for a moment... do you mean Thunder Power

Any idea of charge rates?

65C constant is amazing but it will only last for 55 seconds!
