  1. Hey, Have you checked these... There for the a "other brand" board, I don't see why they wouldn't work, they are small and well made. Have a look at the dimensions and see if they suit your needs. http://www.varitube.com/Stainless-Steel-Tact-Buttons_p_204.html There's also this set, again would need to check button face to case front dims to see if they would work for you. http://www.modmaker.co.uk/Vamo-Buttons Oh S^%# forgot these too, a little more true to Evolv http://www.shapeways.com/product/GKNVG5ELM/dna200-case-buttons?li=more-from-shop&optionId=57297100 Best, Wick
  2. Wick, I have searched for any information on test results for these batteries and found none. Do you have a link to any tests that have been done or statistics relevant to this battery? Thanks[/QUOTE] Unfortunately I have no further info of that nature on these packs, they are quite new on the market (not Hyperion, but the G6 HvLi) there doesn't seem to be to much info out there yet. I have contacted the company and hope to have some harder data shortly, I will share whatever info I receive on this thread. Many of these packs landing in hand tomorrow, wish I could say that I was an electrical genius, but I am not, fortunately I know a few and we plan on putting these packs through there paces quickly. I'm still excited about these batteries on many levels, whether or not I will be recommending they be charged to the higher Voltage, is yet to be determined, I do believe they will still provide substantial cycle life (granted maybe not a record setter, but respectable) under their intended use parameters. I'd say a lot right now lies on the board and whether the concern John raises regarding the "over-voltage protection diode" is an issue or not. Otherwise the only charging to higher voltage would have to be carried out via removable pack and external charger. The board has no issues with the higher voltage battery in use, it's well under the absolute max input voltage. Best, Wick Mods
  3. Sounds good, appreciate it. Yes, would not be thrilled if that is the actual case on these cells, ie truly a decrease in cycle life of that magnitude... Yes the gain is only 10% in the form and weight of a smaller pack of comparable WHrs. That of coarse is the attraction here. Yes they are chargeable at 4.2 cuttoff making the choice ultimately up to the user, but then of coarse the gain of reduced size and weight are out the window. Best, Wick Mods
  4. Hey, Thanks for the quick response John... The only ones I'm aware of are Hyperion and Hobby King. I only have interest in the Hyperion G6 Premium HvLi Series... They are definitely designed to be charged to a higher terminal cutoff voltage, or so they say http://media.hyperion.hk/dn/g6hvlipo/default.htm http://media.hyperion.hk/dn/g6hvlipo/HP-G6HvLiSpecSheet042915.pdf Best, Wick Mods
  5. Hey John & Brandon, Also looking for this feature for HvLi Batts... Sent Brandon a quick inquiry on this last week but have not heard a verdict from him yet. Please let me know, even if it can only be offered on a manufacturer basis that is fine too, Currently developing a production mod using this series battery. So yes I'm officially begging you guys to add this higher terminal charge voltage of 4.35V to address HvLi batteries, and possibly a reduced "battery life optimizing" 4.25-4.3V, as was done for standard V lipos. Best, Wick Mods
  6. Killer Software, damn impressive gentleman.
  7. LOL... I'm running the invisible enclosure myself
