For anyone curious, HK's are listed as LiHV, they have 9 packs of different cell counts (Syco_Venom is correct they only have one in 2S) and 4 capable chargers listed in the USA East warehouse.

I'll be honest that was probably the 1st time I went to HK's site in at least a year or so. Shocked I didn't get an e-mail about that though as they send me a ton of e-mails every time they get some new thing in.
Good one.

Alright, so enough "member measuring" 
(another great line).... and let's forgive our member (no pun intended) for perhaps going off, er, half-cocked, hmm?
...Let's get with the technicals.... So would these "high voltage" Lipos or LiHVs have a different Storage Voltage setting as well?? I'd guess "Yes". So that'd be another change in the charger firmware. And there ARE chargers out for these things too? Hmm. I could see where the slightly higher voltage would give you a bit of an advantage at the top end for speed, but longer runtime?? I don't know. Whatta you think guys?

well the 2 in the original link do show some pretty high mAH ratings so yea I think the 8k would run quite a long time, but the voltage increase itself shouldn't add any as you would more then likely have to have the cutout set higher(just my guess maybe the all knowing flyboy who came could shed light on it).
I hope you're not talking about me, I'm certainly not all knowing and I definately don't mean to come across like I think I am.
I've done some reading and as far as I can find the cutoff voltage is the same as regular LiPo, while the storage voltage is recommended to be 3.83-3.86V. If I were going to use one I would ask the manufacturer to be sure though.

nah that was aimed at the flyboy who added nothing of value to the thread earlier except misspelling of my user name, or any others as this site is loaded with plane users that love adding their 2 cents into ground based RC discussion...
