That would be a nice alternative for those of us with Pro truck (1/10 st with high mah 2s packs) type setups as well, I currently run a maxamps 8000 right now

With 2 8600 batts wired together.....your arm will get tired before the batts run out!

FWIW, a pair of 4S 25C 3700mAh packs will fit, giving you 4S 25C 7400mAh. It's not like SMC is doing something that is leaps and bounds ahead of what's already available.

What I like is that they`ll be $100($65 if thier 8000mah) cheaper then the the other guys

A pair of 3700mAh 4S packs is $338. Is it really that much more attractive with the SMC's being more expensive, heavier and only 1200mAh more capacity?

Ummmm $125 + $125 is $250 is it not? Thats almost 90 bucks cheaper for 1200 more mah and a perfect fit .... Not saying your way isnt any good but im gonna be trying the smc's for sure

My fault...I fat fingered my response. It's $238, not $338. Also, I'm not sure what you mean by perfect fit. My 3700's fit fine in the E-Revo battery compartments and are available now. Why wait on SMC when one of the world's best lipo cell manufacturers already makes packs that fit?

Well, I now know what batteries I will be buying next for my e-revo. I am in the market for some ,so this is perfect. Will Monster Mike be selling them? 8600mah would be great and an answer to one of my prayers

Even cheaper but less capacity is Neu 4s 3200 25c packs for about $160 for two. Plenty long run-times for me!

Actually they're $89ea, so it'd be $178 + $6 shipping, so $184 shipped. Still a good price though. But for $196, you can get a pair of 4S 25C 3900's from Neu (4S 25C 7800mAh).
