    Mr.RC45 lost 6 pounds 10 ounces with a SpeedCell battery...

    SpeedCells are made using A123 cells. The constructions process is
    proprietary & these packs do not require balancing. The packs are
    built for motorcycle applications with cylindrical cells due to there
    robust construction & discharge properties. Each PACK is made to a DoD
    standard, capable of withstanding 100G load, operating temperatures of
    -50*C to 49*C (-58*F to 120*F). It is important to understand that
    these packs are NOT RC hobby type packs & their internal construction
    as well as cell grade reflects this. Each cell is individually tested
    before it makes it to the construction phase. These packs are not
    Lithium ION construction. Speedcell uses Lithium Ferrous cells that
    are not volatile or unstable. They will not rupture when puncture nor
    produce an energy chain.

    SUPERBIKE SpeedCell Specs:

    - Pulse discharge @ 10 seconds = 240 Amps
    - Continuous discharge (MAX) = 140 Amps
    - Cycle Life (DoD spec) = 1,000 cycles

    - Dimensions = 10.5cm (L) x 5cm (W) / 4.13" (L) x 1.96" (W)
    - Weight = 766.57g / 1.69lbs
    - Rating = 4.6Ah
    - Applications = Two cylinder engines 600 cc to 1000cc or 4 cylinder 750-1200cc with stock stators as
    well as Triumph 675 and some singles.

    Stock battery was 7lbs which shows up as a minus in Mr.RC45's new weight and balance figures...
    407lbs dry with 52% front 48% rear weight bias...
