the DC fan is a good idea I should get 2 and put an XT60 on one and an XT90 on the other....thx for the tip

All good mate. If you read it diff to how I meant it, that means others too probably will, so thanks for pulling it up. I’d rather be corrected than propagate miss information

Yes @olds97_lss you are right. What I was meaning, and perhaps it hasn't come across correctly, or it did and I'm just wrong. My intent was to say that having a higher C rating doesn't provide greater protection against battery failure like over charging, over discharging etc. I reckon he...

There are a number of possible reasons for that but you would hope that the higher rated C batteries have better thermal protection and more conductive internally which would help keep them cooler.

I use 2c where it is recommended by the manufacturer and 1c where no recommendation is made. 1c is the safest to be sure. The issue has more to do the the other materials in the battery opposed to the lithium itself. I don’t know the answer to this question, but I have never really understood...

The C rating won’t do anything to save your battery. It is simply the calculation factor to determine the max constant current draw your battery can handle.

Mate chuck the batteries. Once the swell your risk of catastrophe is substantially higher, just google Lipo batter fire. I don't know your situation or the vehicles you are running them in but the following are things to be careful of with Lipo's; Don't charge at a rate higher than...
