I'm running a three cell A123 pack, tuned 55t motors, 10t front, 9t rear. Since going to the A123 cells, the rear pushes the front a little, so I'll probably go to 10t front and rear.

Got it thanks. Seems to be a lot of loyalty towards the NMH, Lipo and separately for a123.
In order to not get into one thing and then have obsolete chargers it seems like a quality versatile chargers like hyperion eos 606 series makes alot of sense. That way it'll charge just about anything i throw at it. Am I on the right track? I know the model number isn't right, but I know where to find the exact one I need from maxamps or other vendor.
