Lipos do crazy things when overcharged and there is no easy way to regulate this for the BRCA.
I`m not against them in anyway, but after speaking to PW at length about lipo cells and the future i can see some potential issues with lipo, if mistreated.  |
I was informed by a touring car racer (does all the TC nats) that some scrutineers are checking the output voltage of cells before races. that has to be a good idea, since he had anecdotes of some racers charging their cells up to 10v before a race for a bit of extra start line 'oomph'....
if the pack is showing more than 8.4v (for 1/10th), the driver shouldn't be allowed to run.
