Default Feedback on Blue Lipo's?

Anyone have experience with these? they are from hobbypartz. Comparably priced to turnigy - maybe a little higher - but with flat $5.00 shipping I'm thinking they are cheaper in many instances when you are buying multiples. I think I figured about $10-13 in shipping added to turnigy prices per battery once you buy 3 or so. I'm looking at the 5k 2S and 5k 3S styles. I'm thinking you order 2 2S to race and 1 3s to play would be under $75. Hobbyking exception would be if you can fit more than 1 batt per 500g, but the 20c 2s is 358g 30c 2s is 380g and the 3c is almost 500g.

http://www.hobbypartz.com/83p-5000mah-2s1p-74-20c.html for $20, would be $45 for 2, $65 for 3 shipped

http://www.hobbypartz.com/83p-5000mah-3s1p-111-20c.html $38.70 shipped

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=10277 Can't be beat 30c for under $24 but its $35-40 after shipping.

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...dProduct=10098 The old standby $20 but over $30 after shipping.

http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...idProduct=9184 $30, $40ish when shipped.

Been a couple posted that they are the same, but when asked for more detail, there's been no details provided.

I'd like to see some data recorder data on them so you can see what kind of voltage drop with current they have. Nobody's teted them that I have seen so far.

I was just looking at the 5000mah 4s today. Unless I hear bad things I'm gonna give them a try. Lokks like they will fit in both my Hyper 9 and the Ve8.

I have some blue lipos. The heatshrink cover isn't as good as other batteries, but they seem to work just fine.

I have raced a 2s 4000 30c and it ran great with no problem. This was with a 13.5 though.
