Default Why Fromeco or Duralite why not off brand?

I am building my first gasser 81" Great Planes Yak. Just decided to go ahead and get a DA-50. So since I am going gas I thought why not switch from NiMH to Lith-ion. Well I started to look at the prices and man I just keeping adding more and more.

Why is Fromeco and Duralite so much better? Couldn't I go with this [link=http://www.all-battery.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=507&strVarSel=&strCompare=]www.all-battery.com[/link]

and this for regulator [link=http://www.batteriesamerica.com/newpage8.htm]batteriesamerica.com 1/4 page down[/link]

I could save $100 just in batteries. And I could save another $300 if I went with Brillelli for the engine. Really rethinking my decisions. Anyone have any opinions on this.
