Exactly. Especially when I can get 2 of these Hyperions for the price of 1 Maxamps...

This name just pops up in a lot of threads for no reason like a bad weed you can't get rid of.

Thats cause they are so easily made fun of with their ridiculous pricing and marketing scheme. As seen below...

I forgot about them being 60C lipos... Maybe Hyperion should advertise at 90C rates That should boost sales. O wait, they already sell good since they are priced right for the quality delivered! Shocking!

Oh goody goody. I'm thinking I am gonna get 2 3s 4200mah packs for the season. I am wondering if it's better to get a 6s pack and split it so you have a perfectly matched pack?

Someone said the Hyperion is only making packs in the 5000 mah range.They said it`s due to restriction of shipping packs over that size.
It was in a post on the Traxxas board

I just went and checked Neu's site, and they have the SP2 rated at 46/92, and the SP's rated at 40/80. Funny though, the SP2's are cheaper than the SP's. The best buys they have are on the XP's. It does appear that Lipo pricing is noticably coming down.
