IMO, I think Neu, FP, and Hyperion all use the same cell manufacturer. FP I think underrates their packs BIGTIME and/or use better cells from the factory/batch. Neu looks like they have the same prices as FP...and Hyperion is drastically cheaper (that's why I went with them) because IMO, they work with larger quantities? Largest of the three companies.

Or maybe Hyperion gets the lower grade cells, doubt it though, but if that were true, then we can only expect more insane levels of performance over the G3's, which I don't even know if it's possible.

Anyways, about the graph, I am pretty sure the 4200 G3's and the 3800 X30's are the same cell, the 3300 G3's and the 3350 X30's, the 2600 G3's and the 2450 X30's, etc... you have to go by weight, because they are merely rating the capacities and C ratings differently.

FP states 3.7v/cell @ 15C discharge.... my G3's are getting (if my Eagletree is to be believed) a little over 3.7v/cell at 6.5C....?

I am strongly considering buying a pair of X30's 3800mah packs soon, see how they compare to the G3's... I am guessing the X30's will be more at least the same, if not, more powerful, despite being rated lower across the board.

Me tired too, going to bed...
