Yeah I run them all the time. The Elite 1500's are way better the IB1400's though.

Keep in mind that is a test at static 20 amps and doesnt really represent the loads a crawler will put on a cell. The burst capabilities are of more interest to me than the discharge graphs. EGRESSor is stating that the GP cells keep a higher voltage during discharge vs the IB's. I think it is a 30 amp discharge, but I dont know german. |

Yeah, I imagine the lowest IR will rule the 30 ampere discharge. I got one of my "small" outrunners to burst 96 amps the other day! It was of course with sub-C. Now I gotta test all my battery packs out to see which 2/3A packs perform the best for peak current!

In real world testing the 1500's seem to have better starting torque with my revolver setup then my Ib1400's.
