would my speedcontrol handel all 8 cells?

[wowo3180]

I have this speed control :
A-o7V
my question is are all my 8 cells are being used for the half 8 or I am just using 6 out of the 8 cells. cause the
Operating power supply is Ni-Cd / Ni-MH 6 cells (7.2V)
but the Maximum current is Up to a maximum current of Ni-Cd / Ni-MH cells. what does this mean?

according to the specs.... you are only supposed to use 7.2v... but if you are using Hi-current batteries.. (like GP1100s... vs, KANs) then the ESC will allow the higher current to pass through giving more punch
