some day, there is gonna need to be a standard of testing these numbers.
example:. my lhs has stopped carrying one of the top battery companies because he said they switched manufacturers to save money and they have been getting a ton of warranty claims. he went on to say they used to be a very trusted company and now he wouldn't put one in his heli if it was the last battery on earth. so who do you trust?
I tend to look at what works and what doesn't work. To me the best lipos so far are from Kokam and Enerland. I haven't bought any of the new lipos jut because I have no clue who's making them and how well the technology is. I have gotten accurate answers from a few brands that have told me the 25C technology is mature and the other rating are not mature yet. One manufacturer wanted to send me a few samples, but I declined as I don't like to take chances.
