Also another issue with adding all the extra weight is massive draw on the batteries and more heat.....fine balance is needed

Must admit you have inspired me over the last couple years.I do a lot with batteries myself especially laptop and Drone batteries since i bought a large amount of them.Anyways regarding the temperature.I was just doing a few discharge tests on the battery i built and comparing with a standard...

Hi Hi if i use the molicell 4200 mah cells in a configuration of 2s6p total 12 cells with a weight of 768 grams and 8400 mah capacity.A huge improvement....But like you said the proof is in the pudding,Just waiting for the cells to arrive and will update you.

Hi with regard to your comment "In this case the pack is heavier and of lower capacity than original" If i use 12 x4200 mah molicell cells capacity will be 8400 mah ie 6 p2s configuration with a weight of 768 grams or even 6p3s 12600 mah with a weight of 1152 grams.Unfortunately i am still...

Yes i totally agree with your logic and sorry to hear about your bad experiences in trying to overcome this hurdle.I think the only place compatible cells are available is India.The Chinese cells are not what they claim.This is the main reason i think a different approach is needed.Hence my...

Maybe pictures might be easier to understand ! ...will weigh slightly more when fitted with molicell cells....

Regarding common sense i just thought it was unwise to invest in battery technology at the moment.You really have contributed nothing to the substantiate your claim "There is a reason why pouch-packed LiPoHV cells are the ONLY thing used in drone batteries. To discuss any other solution is...

Must admit i do understand your criticism considering you have invested a lot of money in compatible cells.Regarding your first point."The C rating"What is the c rating of a single cell from a tb47 ?I believe you may hit 20-25 amps max in flight !.Not sure if you are aware of the newer...

Must admit thou i am trying to find best solution possible as do have a huge amount of goosed tb47/48 batteries and hopefully will have the best solution available.

Really very simple and surprised nobody has tried 18650/21700 route !.You must use high discharge /low resistance cells .But ideally considering shortage of batteries Molicell 4200mah.6s2p configuration will be ideal and will be trying shortly..Unfortunately you are unable to use Dji charger...

Hi all.......just done a tb47 with 18650.looking good so far high discharge 7000mah and 680gramms 12 cells,Will try with 21700 just waiting for deliveries

Just want to say thanks for a fantastic article,Just bought a large qty of these batteries mostly dead.hopfully i might bring a bit of life back into them.........
