GensAce and Turnigy are the two main budget lipo

for me at least they are always out of stock of what I want..which is either popular or what I think is that they just have a really bad supply chain management process

Nothing but love for Turnigy here. Always been great to me, not a single issue, long life, stay balanced, zero heat, excellent value and have proven themselves better than several name brands.. talking to you, Venom and Gens Ace...

6000mAh 2s 65c hardcase lipo for $50 shipped? Oh yes. Get a Turnigy, you'll be a believer.

Jeez, this sounds like an ad. It isn't. I've just really had a good experience with them, as has my other friend with many years' experience who used to only buy the expensive stuff. He's learned the hard way that occasionally, higher price doesn't equate to higher quality.

Too bad, I was willing to sell each for $50 but like you said you just wanted to know what cheap batteries are out there.
