I have my next shipment that will be here tomorrow. I sold the first order of them in a matter of days. This order is larger.

Thanks Mark!

The Genace batteries are made by a factory that can make really really good lipos.....for about 8-10 cycles and then they start to loose mah, voltage and ir goes up. They use a chemical that makes them react really hard the first few cycles but at the expense of cycle life. You may not notice the drop in MAH running VTA due to the lower amp draw and not getting that deep into the discharge curve. I tested a lot of samples from this factory and if they could make a lipo with the performance of the first few cycles last the whole life of the pack they wold be great! Its also the reason why they are much cheaper than other packs. The chemical used for this is much much cheaper since its of a lower grade. There are several other companies that use this same factory for their cells. Most of the more economical cells come from this place and all act the same way.
For the money and certain applications they are good packs as long as your cycle life isnt a priority.
Hope maybe that helps
