I think you misunderstood me BigP. I swapped the four standard C batteries for two IMRs and two dummies, taking the voltage from 6 to 7.4 and quadrupling the current. A 2S LiPo pack would have produced the same voltage and even more current, which presumably would have produced the exact same end result. A 3S pack would certainly be too much.

It isn't about the battery type, it's more about the overall voltage and amperage. There's no way a LiPo is going in a Regulator without isolating the control circuitry from the motors, and possibly the conveyor. It's not just a rewire, it's a whole redesign of the electronics.
