I'm thinking about a 10 cell pack with the mamba25 and hyperion 5000. Has anyone tried this?

No but I'd be curious how it works. Especially the heat factor.

3 cell is the way to go for 12volts...fast and light

The 10 cell pack is going to require a different hold down so I'm going to try 8 of these new cells to see if they can deliver the run time before I chop up my battery flaps. With the reduced weight I may be fine with 8 cells, provided it will give me enough run time.

Made a few runs with the 9.4v 650 pack yesterday, averaging just over 8 minutes per run before dumping. The lower weight of these cells was just the ticket as performance improved across the board. I'm going to have to lighten up my shocks a bit to settle the car now that it weighs less, but otherwise it was better than it's been to date.
