I used to have some MaxAmps 8k packs, which have a higher current capability than 5k packs.

I switched over to FlightPower Evo30 4500mah 2S packs (a pair in my G2R to make 4S) and the performance is incredible. These put out TONS of power without a sweat. Most of the time they barely get more than 10-15* above room temp, if that. The 3S Evo20 3700mah packs in my CRT.5 stay cold.

They are AMAZING packs and will dish out whatever you need them to.

MaxAmps packs are good packs, but I honestly believe they are overpriced for the performance they offer. A Maxamps 5000mah 2S pack is about $105 before shipping once you add on Deans and 12awg wire. Shipping is usually about 10 bucks, so we can say $115.

Now, go to Tower and a 5000mah FlightPower pack is 119.99. However, they always have some sort of deal going on that if you just add on some spare parts to your order (or any other parts you may need) then you'll get a discount.

FlightPower packs are the way to go, if you ask me.

I may do that, need to sell of some other stuff, lipos, cars, etc. I have way too much stuff and need to organize my hobby room. I am going to make as pace for my entertainment setup from the house. Time for a big flatscreen for the living room wall. My Yamaha/cerwin vega setup can go to the shop, and I can jam out while I work on rcs!
