I have bought several packs from this seller and all have been great. I don't push them above 5C constant. Thus far they have performed very well. Also I have HE-Cell packs from TrueRC that are over 2 yrs old and still working great. I'm very pleased with them also. Both sellers have been good to ship promptly. The Max Batteries are the best ones I have yet (MAXAMPS) for high discharge applications.

FMA has some Cellpro on sale, fmadirect.com

Home page, click on monthly specials, Cellpro 3S, 1500mah, 8C batteries with deans connectors and balance tabs for 25 bucks. Why not buy from a known source? I bought tons of these batteries and they are perfect. Don't forget if you put them parallel, you add the Cs and they will be able to take larger discharge. I use them to power all my Hangar 9 warbirds and they stay cool as 2S6P

Using the standard, cheapest shipping, I had my order in two weeks to the day (ordered on a saturday evening, delivered on saturday two weeks later. The key is if the product is in stock or not, but they are good at indicating that on their website. For the price I have no problems ordering from them.

I also like the fact that they tell you in your cart how much weight you have left for the current shipping charge. You can throw in small items until you are at capacity for no extra shipping!

They are in China and I pay through PayPal using a credit card. My credit card company called about 4 hours later to confirm I had actually placed this order since the charge was going overseas into China! Apparently that is how a lot of credit card theft is done. I thanked them for watching so carefully!
