perfect example:

i have a pair of 30c 5000mah 3s neu-energy packs.
i also have a pair of turnigy (not the nano-tech) 25c 5000mah 3s packs.........the turnigies perform much better and even a normal bystander could tell the difference.

another scenario:

i have a of thunderpower 45c 2200mah 3s pack
i also have 2 turnigy (non-nano-tech) 40c 2200mah 3s packs

the 2200mah packs are all used in a high-amp plane and the turnigies provide longer flight times, faster RPMs and temp about 10F cooler than the tunderpower. all 3 batteries have equal use and equal treatment. also, the thunderpower is getting a little puffy while the turnigies are still solid.



the turnigies were substantially cheaper and they are rated lower, yet they are the superior packs. they always temp lower and they have noticeably more punch and lower voltage drop.

the nano-tech turnigy packs are rated even more conservatively than the non-nano-tech packs.


They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
