I guess I get to join the 4 MMM club.

I lost #4 today. Good thing I have another one still new in the box.

I'll put it in later this week. This is going to be the one I just know it.

I've only heard of problems in truggies and monster trucks so far.
and you know everyone with an MMM to make such a claim? You do realise that the vast majority of people with MMMs dont come and register on this forum and tell everyone they work? The only ones you ever hear about are ones that fail - thats the nature of forums, especially here, in the 'support forums'. The whole point of them is for people who have problems.

+1 MGM reply on average 1 in every 3 emails you send them. Then blame you for a fault anyway.

Quarks only offices are in korea now.So cs can be a hassle.I use a Quark 80b modded for heat and extra caps and it does alright with a Medusa 2000,but I can overheat it in about 10 minutes if I'm not careful.

And even when Quark had a US office, they only work reliably up to 5s. 6s is iffy, some people can get them to work, some can't, and some will work if some of the voltage is bled a little below the 4.2v of a fresh cell.

it would be nice if castle would keep us up to date and maybe even be honest with us as to why there are so many failures
