From the 2005 thread linked above. Same story as in 2010. BS, BS, BS until you get caught, then deflect and spin and put on happy faces. Notice Austin doesn't deny lying, merely justifies it as everyone is lying too. I'm sure if the thread went on long enough he'd publicly offer to exchange the packs and get congratulations of great CS.

Hi Guys. Austin here with MaxAmps.com

Just wanted to address this issue as I ran accross your thread.

If you cycle our cells at 6 amps for 4-6 cycles, I have yet to find one that doesn't come up to 1.18V or higher. As you know, even if it was a 1.17V pack, it would be a great value.

The fact is that if you took a "sticker matched" pack from another vendor and used your own equipment to match it you would find that 99% of the time you would get different numbers then what they have on the stickers.

Some vendors will dead short cells or cycle at very high amp draws so that they get really high numbers for 1-2 cycles, put a sticker on it and sell it. If I was a customer, I would prefer to get a fresh cell and get all use out of the good cycles up to 1.18 instead of getting a pack that is already beat to death so that it can put out only a couple of good cycles.

Bottom line is that there is no other vendor that guarantees at least a 1.18 on the customers equipment. Even if you pay $90.00 for a sticker matched pack they will not guarantee that you will get the same numbers on your equipment...

Best Regards,

You are the only battery company I know of that claims to sell GP cells that are 100% 1.18+ volts. That in itself is unprecedented. For the record, even if your cells are at best just lower 1.17s (as cr250's test indicated) they are NOT a good deal! There are several matching companies out there that sell matched packs for nearly the same price as your unmatched ones. With all other things being equal, a matched pack is always superior to an unmatched one.

I find your other statements confusing; if a matcher cycles cells 3 to 4 times to get consistent performance label numbers, it's bad. You claim they've used up most of the good cycles and there are only a couple of good cycles left in them. If a customer buys MaxAmps batteries and cycles them 4 to 6 times in an effort to find their hidden 1.18+ potential, that's good. Who do you believe you are addressing with these ridiculous statements? Do you think we are a bunch of mindless, uneducated morons? Your statements are incredibly demeaning! Bottom line, a customer thoroughly tested one of your packs and it did not come close to 1.18 volts.
