_paralyzed_ Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Caps and lithium batteries have been used in r/c cars in conjunction for years.Caps and lithium batteries are fine to use together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Sounds to me like an urban legend of sorts. They'll work fine together, though I think the usefullness of caps might be stunted as there is less of a disparity of resting and charge voltage in lithium batts vs. lead acid depending on install ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

420c Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 There are some guys running this combination with positive results already but i was just leaning torwards if you end up in a situation where your alts start to overcharge which i think you touched on already or the battery itself is a dude and you ends up like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

420c Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 Ill see if i can find some of the videos with people running both as they really are a solid combination for big power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangaranga Posted November 24, 2015 Report Share Posted November 24, 2015 I used to race R/c for years, the videos you are talking about are a more volatile chemistry than those used by XS power and juicebox. the car has an adjustable regulator so over charging wont be an issue.
