(talking about realistic RC car/truck loads, so not a continues 100A, but 'peaks'

So to keep it going with maxamps packs; get 2P, that's my advice. but on 2P they don't perform (powerwise) like the Enerland 4350's. they are rather close though.
Thanks Serum. I wasn't trying to say that there wasn't quantifiable data on the batteries to determine which one is more superior - just that I didn't have it. In other words, the only info I had was heresay or opinionative. Hence the Ford vs Chevy reference.

Great info on the batteries though - thanks!
