pedeboi - Lipo is def the way to go but don't stress your budget to much. You may want to take your $175 and first invest in a good lipo capable charger, that will charge your NiMh packs better than your current charger. Then when you get some money saved up again buy a good Lipo. There's no point in buying a cheap charger and Lipo just so you can get it all at once. Your less likely to be happy in the long run. I would highly recomend the hyperion chargers, integrated balancers and very user friendly.

As far as that stupid discharge graph goes I alos beleive it to be a bunch of BS! I think that even with the bad reputation of MaxAmps most can agree that even they outperform NiMh.
