Classes that are still NIMH

[sjslhill]

4 random IB3600 cells that have been cycled many times, left totally discharged for weeks and tested again at 35 amps. (yes, I can run them at 70 if someone wants it)

410

1.202

411

1.203

413

1.204

422

1.200

410 is 3986mah at 35 amps.

These are your durable cells of choice for NIMH. $3.95 a cell, NOT $12.00

Alan asked this question and I followed....

I am not sure, how many classes run 70-80 amps continuous? Does anyone have that data on Eagle Tree or DRP? Is that for N2?

Do you have data for LiPoly packs as well? Can you lay out what each class does?

thanks for your help on this. Maybe we should focus on what classes are staying NIMH. I want to focus on the future, I know that LiPoly is the future for some classes.

thanks,

Steve

Ok Steve and how many times can you cycle them at 70 -80 amps before they start to fade?

How many times have you did voltage checks on new IB4200 cells and found them different? I just complete two 36V packs for a robot team and both packs are exactly 39.0V! These cells have been here for a few weeks and they have not self discharged.

Okay, guess nobody is interested.....

Have fun!
