Using the Boe-Bot Li-Ion battery pack with an ActivityBot

The instructions for the Li-Ion battery pack for the Boe-Bot say that you should set the servo ports to 5V instead of Vin but the instructions for setting up the ActivityBot say to set them to Vin. Which should it be if I'm powering an ActivityBot with the Boe-Bot Li-Ion battery pack? The battery pack puts out 7.5v and the motors say they work on 6-8v so would think it would be okay to run them on Vin. Is that correct?
