Allex said:Emmet, cannot be lifepo4 as with its lower energy density it would be impossible to fit in the fighter
No, the first generation pouch packs that came out for the Fighters and Bombers back in late 2011 early 2012 were Lifepo4 chemistry. This was when Stealth shrunk the frames on the bikes when they stopped using Headway Cells. The Fighter was running a 16s pack and the Bomber was running a 24s pack. Hot off charge for the Fighter back then was 58.4 volts instead fo 58.8 now with the Li Ion chemistry. My dad is still running the original pouch cell Lifepo4 pack his Bomber, my old Bomber. Its funning because he charges it and the fault HVC shuts down at 87.4 volts, but after it sits for a few hours, the volts drop to 80.1 or 79.9 depending on temperature. Lifepo4 isn't a bad chemistry, it does suck when the weather is cold and doesn't have the energy storage density foer kg as Li Ion Li Co or Li Poly and some of the other exotic chemistries though.
