Status: offline 		These cells are the new 2005 version GP3300, they usually come with about a 1.15 to 1.16 voltage before zapping, so after I zap them they should almost all be 1.17-1.19... I am not a matcher, so I can't guarentee it, but these cells will be amazing!

Then what are you basing your voltage estimates on? Big, professional companies like Promatch, Team Scream, Fusion, Novak and countless others struggle to get 1.18+ cells and you are estimating 1.19s? Sorry, I need facts, not guesses, when choosing my racing cells.

Status: offline 		Speedmunky, these are meant to be packs for bashers and for use in qualifiers. I get my numbers from my friend who has a turbomatcher 4, but I don't want to individually match each cell because it would take a lot more time and money. At $29.99 for a set of 6 GP 3300s that are zapped using professional grade equipment and individually shrink wrapped, I want everyone to be able to afford good batteries. People shouldn't have to run 2400s because they can't afford a nice set of 3300s. As a basher myself I run into this all the time, when people go to the track with their brand new Rustler, Stampede, or T4, and can only run for a couple of minutes, and it really takes the fun out of R/C.
(P.S. for you racers out there, these cells average about 1.18+)

Status: offline 		honestly, Maxamps and Cheap Battery Packs has that market covered pretty well. What we really need are more high end, HONEST matchers. No trickery like Integy and other 20A matchers. Give the racers honest numbers, and you'll get repeat business.

Status: offline 		I am just a basher myself but the brushless motor I have will need high quality matched packs. Until you can match to the same standards as companies like Pro Match and Team Scream, I think you're going to have a hard time selling to bashers like myself and racers like Speedmunkey that need high quality packs and are willing to pay the extra to get them. My suggestion is to start checking into professional matching equipment and seeing what other matchers use and when you can, invest in the equipment. Then be patient, it will take time to build a good reputation as a professional matcher.

Status: offline 		Speedmunkey, I will be selling on ebay where the only compeition is Maxamps... He sells Loose Cells for $29.99 and does approx 40-50 packs per 3 days on ebay from what I have seen... I am not looking to do this kind of volume yet (and don't have space in my house for it Price wise, Maxamps assembled are $36, mine will be $35. Same with CBP. CBP loose cells are $5.25 - $31.50 per 6 cells... I am not looking to take over the entire market, but I believe it is a growing market, and I want to be part of it

What a bunch of bull! Just what we need, another person selling batteries that are claimed to be 1.18s, but the cells are not graded and do not carry labels. Incredible!

Status: offline 		Obviously everyone on this forum is very cautious when buying batteries! I'll restate what I said before (twice). These cells are intended for bashing, they are very high voltage packs because they are the new 2005 version of the GP 3300s. I will also be zapping them to increase the voltage further. I had someone tell me that they intended to use my packs for qualifiers, which is fine with me. I would not reccommend using these in A mains! I would appreciate everyone reading every post before trying to dispute the quality of my cells. These are meant to be affordable packs for bashing, practice, and maybe qualifiers if you want. Because I don't need to match them for these applications, it costs me less to produce them, and in turn I am able to sell them for less money. I have seen people spend $20-30 on 2400s or even 3000s online and I don't think anyone should have to buy such inferior cells. I know that when I first got my T4 (the first of my many electrics) I was bummed to find out that I could only run it for 6-7 mins on the 3000s that I had paid $35 for. I started this business not because I want to rip people off, on the contrary I want to make it a more affordable hobby for those that don't have $100 to spend on racing cells.

Status: offline 		i personally will buy atleast one pack from him, i have a turbo 35, so ill know what voltage they put out, i dont think it would be to his benefit to come on here and lie. i know i spent about $100 for my 1.118 and my 1.119, i dont like using them for qualifying heats, currently i use a reedy black label that avg's 1.17-1.18 per cell, i would pay $35 for unmacthed gp3700, if for nothing else practice, even the worst 3700 will hold voltage through a 5 min heat!!!

Status: offline 		CR250, can you at least read my posts before responding! These cells are meant for practice, bashing, and if you want qualifiers. I don't know why you are so hellbent on disputing the quality of my cells, but I can tell you that they are great! I personally own about 10-15 different packs of GP 3300s from different matchers and I know how to tell the difference between good and bad batteries. Don't forget that I used to have my brushless project sponsored by Team Scream, so I have run some of the best matched packs in the business.

These packs would be perfect for practice without having to use one of my really nice packs. I think what he is doing is great and Good Luck to you and your business!
