Turnigy LiFEPO4 packs

[lutach]

Wow....5000 cycles, true 60C rating and priced a little too high....I can't fall for BS marketing and big corp. like practices, specially in a hobby. Have any of you guys wonder why they don't go for the Aircraft guys? Here's a hint....Most newcomers to the hobby will always get started with a rc car and will read the rc magazines and fall for the marketing first before finding out there are similar packs out there at less the half the price.

I wonder when MA will leave the rc hobby and move on to the military and/or auto industry with their incredible cells. The owner of MA also has other ventures going for him, so he should be ok when they can't sell anymore over priced packs. Apogee made the move to supply the military with their cells and I haven't seen any being used or reported by the military.
