But in my experience Harold, you're wasting your time. But good luck trying to dish out some education!

edit: opps, didn't PM ya, saw that too late. The original thread didn't get closed so this one is probably good too. (I didn't do any flaming in my post, so don't blame me).

No worries. Thanks for the link.

Yea unfortunately no matter how many times or how much info we provide people are still going to believe the advertised hype and buy what LOOK GOOD to them at the time. We all know how addictive this hobby can be and acquiring our Lipos is part of that issue. Plus a lot of people just try to purchase from a USA company thinking that they are supporting our economy by doing so. Unfortunately we know that even their cells come from China, and are really no better than anyone elses cells. So the custom stickers make them look like a good choice because they look flashier and prettier than the rest. Even after all of the requests that we have made of their sales executive to provide proven specs to show what their hype was about for more than three years now they still have not done so, and I doubt that they ever will. Those of us who have been in this hobby for a while no better and spend our money wisely. I to wish you luck trying to convince the masses of your opinion, but flame stickers are easy to get and appear to be an American product.

It just bugs me. I've actually looked into suing them for false advertising, but I would have to purchase one of their batteries and be hurt by it in some way to have a suit.

R/C is literally all I do with my time. That and sleep a lot.

Maybe I just need to think about other things.

Hey Harold don't go changin on us. I am happy to see you around here when I pop in to catch up on things. Maybe just try to ignore anything about flaming stickers unless someone calls out for advice. Otherwise things will pretty much take care of themselves in the long run. Your posts and opinions are valued and much appreciated. And what do you mean you only have this hobby? I just saw that hot rod your driving around in with the custom sticker of your own on the back. Your stylin dude. Plus we all know that chicks dig a guy who drives a party van. You should get your own identical flame stickers (minus the namebrand) blown up for the sides of your van, and put something that shows a big steaming pile of crap for power output, and maybe the devil for the face of the product. That would get the word out.

I like the way you think Jerry!
