    Need some advise on wire and connectors.

    Ok thanks guys,guess i will just stick with 12 ga and the pp30's.I'm going to be using a nice set of ratcheting crimpers so the connection should be pretty good.Those pp30's just look so tiny to me lol.Will post some pics when the lipo packs show up so long as i Don't catch them on fire lol.

    Ok the specs for the alarms i got for the 6s packs Don't match up with what you guys are saying here.The alarm would go of at about 3.3v per cell.I'm confused. It is configured to work like this: Blue light shines: 22.2V and up Blue light flash: 22.2v ~ 20.4v Red light shines: 20.4v ~ 19.8v...

    Help with Lipoly

    So all i need to do is wire them in series and monitor the voltage,that would be the same thing as an alarm right?..I Don't have to do anything with the balance taps when on the scooter correct? These are the packs i want to run. Also do you think that will be too much voltage for 48v...

    Help with Lipoly

    Aren't the balance taps just for when you are charging?
