Tower Hobbies has a good selection of Ni-MH batteries at resonable prices. They also have a good selection of chargers.

I also like Dynamite chargers which can be found at Horizon Hobby. I had a Prophet Plus LCD and I really liked it.

Good news: Tenergy sent me 4200 mAh replacement batteries for my 3800s that I had bought in February and had started acting funny.

Bad news: One of the new 4200 exploded the first time we used it.

More bad news: One of the original 3800 melted this weekend during use.

Not a good weekend for batteries for me.

I've had good luck with my 3500's I bought 1 year ago, but they are about to die, they heat up too much when charging and running.
