You have to remember this is RCu. There are practically no serious R/C racers here, and it's the serious R/C racers who buy from tuners.

It is their Cobalt motor's that last longest, I know as I have used 2 of their 19t's and my LHS guy sells heaps of these motors and recomends the cobalts for long life.

The Element V2 19T is the longest lasting of the bunch by a long shot. 30-40 runs before needing a cut with the enduro brushes. I would get one from tower hobbies unless you are a serious competitor in the 19T class. The guy that is telling you the Cobalt is the longest lasting is selling you! The others listed will need brushes replaced and the comm cut about every 6 runs.

The Team Checkpoint 19T money motor is another good performing, long lasting motor

None of the motors you talked about are on that list. I want a team brood motor under $40 that has pretty good life

The ones you picked will all have about the same life. The KD 19T is the most powerful. I recommended the others because they meet your critera and will last much longer than the ones you picked. Worth the extra money and the long run IMO.

You will like this motor. If you want even longer life with it you can use the infinity brushes instead of the included Atlas brushes. This motor is a torque monster so do not be afraid to gear it up some. Just watch your motor temps.
