High current batteries

High current batteries
This is for an HPI micro rs4. I have heard that both 6 and 8 cell 2/3A packs are best. I am looking for some good batteries to build the pack. LHS only have the standard 1100mHh 2/3A cells. I am looking for better cells.
Has anyone used these?

Are they good?

How much are those?
If I buy 24, these are $1.40/cell. That seems pretty good for a high current cell. I can build 4 6-cell packs or 3 8-cell packs.

Those are $3/cell. If these are even close to as good as the KAN cells, I can build 4 packs for the price of one of those prebuilt packs.

It's good to have so many choices, even with high current cells.

I just got the RED kans:

I will build a pack and post how they compare with standard 2/3As.

I sell the KAN cells, and I've done a lot of testing with them.
He's claiming 20A discharge with no voltage loss? Sorry, that's a long way off the mark. Halve that figure.
They are an excellent cell - but they don't perform like a sub-C...
LOADS of performance for a "Micro" car though.

Darn, I was hoping I could get say 12 of these cells, and run t six cell packs in parrallel in my 1/10 scale.
