Default Orion Batteries help please

I am looking for a battery for my TA06. This car is very peculiar as to which battery would seem to work in it because of its design.

My LHS carries Orion batteries and from seeing the brand around for a while I would like to purchase a battery from them.

I did however notice the this battery comes in what I am interpreting several models based on a quick internet search.

For instance you have the "Carbon Pro LiPo"

Then you have the Carbon Molecular LiPo batteries
with the blue label:

And the you have the another Carbon Molecular with a purple label.

I am wonder if someone could please help me discern the differences to make an educated purchase. The car's application will be RCGT and Blinky Touring.

Thank you.

The last link dont seems to work, at least not for me.

I dont know whats the performance difference, if any other than mAH and marketing, but I'd check if there's room for the wires, they are located different in the first two you link to... One might have better performance, but if the wire location is a pain in your particular car...

Carbon Molecular models: Blue and Purple labels only signify different capacities. They are both 45C rated though.

Carbon Pro: Newest model. 90C rating in various capacities.

All are good. Orion batteries are amazing. Charge at 2C, never swell, never really need balancing and have loads of punch.
