He quotes me, yet was referring to B5B... that's logical.

And Linc put the effort in the make a very good post... listen to what he is saying.

And he is also correct, no one on this forum would 'recommend' SMC packs, we never have, unless you bought them already and then asked if they were okay, and someone may have said "ya, they are okay".... they are unproven, and unknown cells.

If you want reliability and still have plenty of power, go for an A123 pack, I can personally testify to the robustness of these things, I have used them for 3 years now; overcharging them, over discharging them many times, taken them over the rated limits (seen over 60C bursts on my 7s1p pack), and they come back for more.

If you want the best performance and quality in a pack, then go for Hyperion G3's, FP EON X30's, or Neu packs.... or if you are tired of spending money on packs, go for Zippy/Turnigy packs, dirt cheap and they perform, and have a good track record thus far.

But before you decide what pack you want, obviously check with SMC what they can do for you. Maybe tell them your situation.
