Your insinuating that a company that makes good batteries has no issues with batteries. So what do you do when you buy a lipo and 3 months down the road it either swells or stops working ? Some people will just buy another one because they did save money but soon they realize they just bought the same battery twice. There's nothing wrong with a company backing their product. They're just merely showing that they believe in their product and providing a service that some companies are to cheap to do, umm like foreign companies with no tech support and domestic companies to make a quick buck and then say umm were sorry you have no warranty therefore you're going to have to buy A battery again for the 3rd time but yes they have quality batteries but no customer service. I'll pay extra knowing that if or when I have a issue over the next couple years that their customer service will come through for me which there is a few companies out there left that back their products yet.
