cheap US available batteries
 

I am looking at getting some Lipo batteries. I see everybody talking about Zippy and Trunigy and brands like that. They seem to be decent, but I want a US supplier. What are some decent brands? Not looking for top of the line.

Well, from what I have read people here have had good success with hobbypartz and some of the lipos they sell. Pretty sure a few members here use Blue lipos, and like them.

Mang, get the Ace lipos from Hobbypartz or the guy from Formuladrc.com.

Hobbypartz is great I ordered several sets all work well

Hobbyking also has a USA warehouse where you can pick up Turnigy lipo's (not the nano-techs yet), just google "hobbyking usa warehouse" and surf the 6 or so available pages. It will only list what is available here, if you use any of the search tabs (lipo batteries for instance) it will show you items available from overseas as well.

All e RC sells the hyperion CX lipos which are pretty cheap ( 25/40C ).

Otherwise:

I would use hobbypartz or the hobbyking USA warehouse too, yeah.

Try Rc-monster.com.

^^^ plus the sipping is mad fast.

Are you asking about LiPo's manufactured in the USA? If so I don't think there are any. If your talking about US distributors there are alot.

Guessing you mean shipping. Now I can do some mad fast sipping if you are buying the cognac...

I totally would except I am not really a racer and I can't really justify top quality lipos for my needs. If Mike carried the medium quality lines I would get them from him.

Jeff

Thanks guys I'll look into them.

I would like to see Mike start carrying Gens Ace packs, maybe I'll shoot him an email.

I think as long as you take some opportunities to support RCM and buy RCM products there's no reason to feel guilty about buying HK lipos.

Sky lipos are the best that Ive had for the price from hobbypartz.com i Just bought some 4000mah 20c's for $24 each and they been proven to be as good as Thunder power batteries!

I can give my stamp of approval for ACQ packs.

I got 2 2s1p turnigy 5000 20c hard case packs from us vendor hobby king $48.00 shipped in 4 days
they work great for basher packs

My 3s 5000 45-90c nanotec's should be here soon as well and i'll give you guys my review on them when they get here!!
