Wow,

I'm suprised this thread has had so much attention lately. I know you guys are waiting for "charts and graphs" but I do agree somewhat that the battery needs to speak for itself in real time real world testing also. I realize that the true 150c rating might be a little over the top but think about this in a real world application.

1. Have you guys stopped to think about what a 1 sec burst of 150c will do to your truck/car? It's gonna tear the shiatz out of your parts, your going to wheely out of control no matter how fast or slow your going. I think most people in hear that know brushless understand what I'm trying to say. Even with a flux 5t conversion, (just an example), your not going to put that power to the ground with any positive results.

2. If MA were catering to the "knowledgable" brushless guru's out there they would market this battery as such. Reliable, stable, continous power ratings, cool temps etc... I don't think that is their nitch, they cater to the "new" brushless customer, the occasional weekend basher. Im not saying they don't want us as customers, I only pointing out that most of us here buy other brands out of experience, not an impulse buy. MA is an impulse buy in my honest opinion.

3. Lets see what real world testing shows up. These might be a higher quality cell and if so other more reliable brands will surely be to follow.

Will I ever buy a MA battery again, no. I lost my faith a while back with this company and I'm willing to bet no matter what the "charts and graphs" say, most of you guys bashing in here will never buy a MA battery again either. So lets give MA a shot to prove there batteries. Maybe there are some guys in here that are interested in these batteries and if so, they will be the true test. Let's be patient, I'm looking forward to the results myself only because it wil be a sign of what's to come for the future of lipos.

I'm not knocking anyone but lets try to keep an open mind.
