RE: Good place for Li-po batteries
Actually I buy mine from a guy on Ebay, from HK for about $20 delivered. 2200,30C, 3S batteries which for a K2 are a tad heavy but give looong flight times for doing basics. You want batteries for aggresive or 3D fly'n then these would NOT be any good for the K2 or CP. Been a few months since I bought from him but I think his name is "you-want" in fleabay.
happy flying

Just get it from Ebay or Hobbycity. I'll prefer Ebay, hobbycity use to be great but they are selling more and more expensive lipo and is not a well known brand.

RE: Good place for Li-po batteries
I bought a 3S 1500mah (hyperlithium brand - had stock esky balance plug and deans on the main power lines) that I'm pretty happy with from:

Actual battery:

Shipping was quick (I'm in Australia) and reasonable, price of the battery was about $25, and it's been fine so far. They also sell an adapter ($4) if you haven't converted to Deans and don't want to solder a new connector on. I've ordered various things from these guys a total of 3 times, and service has always been good/quick.
