Not proposing anything but I'm curious as to what you guys might think.
What if we allowed parralel packs in offshore? Instead of limiting the MAH to what technology has to offer. As long as we don't exceed 32 cells in series it's not dangerous. We could require paralleling to be done by harness or something.
For instance.
32 GP3700 in series
or
64 GP3700 with
2 parallel packs of 32 in series.
This would in effect be the same thing that we are talking about for 1/8 scale except that we would still have cell chemistry limitation.
Take a 64 cell boat to a nitro race and scare the paint off of them. LOL 7400mah at well over a 100 amps. Yeeehaaa! Of course you need the big Shultze to pull it off. Might need a real cooling system for the motor too.
How about a 24 cell P offshore boat with 2 packs of 12 2/3A GP2000 cells? hmmm...
Just thinking out loud guys. I'm curoius as to the pros and cons. The only con I could come up with was stupid people that should never mess with FE to begin with.
Am I just thinking too much? It would drive the cost up but OH! what a freakin show!
