Indeed these are some AWESOME cells!!!!! I let mine sit for a week with the partial charge that comes in them and they lost NOTHING, still had 240sec @ 35A!!!!!
When I go to the track this week I will see how they kept the storage charge that I put into them and report back, but I would really be surprised if they didn't hold 1200-1500mah that I had put into them.
Great job Gavin!!!!

I know that things have been slow on the thread but for anyone that is considering some NiMh's for their 12th scale you really should look into the Speedzone IP's. They are simply awesome!
After two months of use each of my packs are within 20 seconds of what the individual cells matched at. This is even more awesome when you consider that individual cells tend to run 10 seconds less as a pack then their matching numbers. My maintenance routine was straightforward; put a half charge into them and let them sit until their next use. When I went to use them I would discharge them at 15amps and then put them on my DPD (linear mode) to equalize them and then charge at 5.5 amps. That's all I did and they still continue to hold their storage charge (even after a 3 week period of no racing) to this day. Hands down these are the best cells that I have ever used.
Gavin please shoot me an e-m regarding the voice mail that I left you and let me know when those 3 packs will go out for the Nat's. Thanks.

It's been some time since I posted on here but firstly many thanks to our existing customers who continue to support us and to our new clients who purchase our product through various avenues. Thank you!

Now for some product news...we continue to offer the IP4600 cells...by far the most stable cell we have ever seen and self discharge is virtually non-existent...it's just a shame that these cells were not produced when nimh was the only option. We also continue to offer our line of 7.4v Lipo Packs which have been real good performers. More news to follow in the next couple of weeks.
Regards,
Gavin
