Hmm, I wonder why they have different labels then (aside from the obvious reason; to make more money over nothing)? Maybe the 30C cells are matched better, so they deem them safer for higher C rates? I would doubt it's because of the 8GA wire, but who knows.
The first Batch of Turnigy 2S 5000mah packs that was delivered from the factory was labeled 15C.
There was alot of confusion over this, and alot of people asked questions since HC was telling everyone they were really 20C cells.
One of the HC staff said that Turnigy only ran one type of slurry, and when the order was mistakenly made for 15C, they just labeled the packs 15C and shipped them. LOL
He said one batch of slurry was enough to produce 20,000 or 30,000 packs.
I believe they have an impressive formula and they are covering alot of market with it with varying prices.
As far as the 'same packs go'. It does make sense to grade the same cells under different labels because they can therefore charge more for a 'premium 30C' pack.
Going to track this thread as I'm planning on buying me some 5S Turnigy's.
Mugen MBX6Te RCM + Mugen MBX6e RCM + Savage Flux XL FLM + MERV all with Spectrum DX3S || WTS&WTB
more data from today's race.
marked on the pictures is the battery brand name.
they are:
Turnigy 6S 30C 5000mah
Zippy-H 20-30C 5000mah
both under racing conditions, amazingly we didn't get much more than 45 amps from racing!!
so finding real load to test how well these packs go under heavy load might be harder than it looks!!
