Umm...what is a hiney hole?

I won't suspend you but rather you can suspend yourself by not logging in and posting either here or in the for sale section since you seem to sell a lot of stuff without paying the board a penny.

Just got my body back and ready to go for this weekend. My 7200mah 70c battery works great in my SCT

I wonder if a little dielectric grease would help or hurt the life of internal plugs and sockets?

Maybe 5r4e Polyphenyl Ether would be better.

Wow that went a bit crazy! I was wandering where Danny went

Yeah, can't hurt. Not a bad idea after swabing with a Qtip and alcohol for your regular maintenance. Best bet is to stay on top of fresh plugs but that may extend the life a bit.
Will throw a dab in there for the heck of it before I run again

I just wanted to say that I purchased two 5100 40C batteries from SMC for a friend that is a club racer for his ebuggy and he said they were great. I have the same batteries and have come to the same conclusion. I have owned many different batteries and love SMC for the quality and price.... SMC is my battery of choice now....

Ok so I'm playing with my PowerLab 6 today and wanted to see the difference between my 2S Nanotech packs, 2S GensAce Packs and the 2S SMC 6570 I just got.

He who's name shall not be spoken said to be careful with the internal resistance measurement on the PL6 but that it would be ok to use to compare packs under the same conditions. Well what I found is that the NanoTechs and GensAce give an IR just below 4 mOhm and the SMC is around 2.6 mOhm. Or something like 30% lower.

My understanding is lower is better...so I can't wait to get this thing on the track.

Still need to test my Throttleworx Shorties to see where they fall.

Ran my new 5600 70C Saddle Pack last Saturday and I have to say the battery performed great with no loss in power throughout the heats & the main. I had to dremel to make it fit in my DEX410V3, but it fits nicely. I also bought an 8.5 SM-1 motor and it ran fast and cool all day. I wanted to thank Danny for having outstanding customer service and providing great values to us racers. I highly recommend giving his product line a try.

Ran my new Short packs last night for the first time. I've nothing to compare it to as these are the only lipo's I have but I had no issues and had more than enough punch and duration.

Glad to here as I just ordered the same batteries for my e-buggy

Did the packs being compared go through the same number of charge cycles?

Well the PL6 measured IR while charging. This is that measurement through one charge from storage to full charge.

The other packs are a year old and I just received the SMC so that may have some impact as well. That said I'm not running every day or even every week, I run every other weekend at most and have way more batteries than I need so my packs don't get very many cycles.

I just went to the smc sight to order another 5100 40c pack and now it says pre order does that mean they are all gone.

Yes it means they have none in stock, those that choose to pre-order get the first ones in the next shipment, all preorders get filled before he puts them on the site for sale.
If you would like to know when they will be in you can go to his face book page and ask when the next shipment will be in, he might not have an exact date but I do know the wait time between his shipment is not very long anymore.

Or for those that don't use Facebook you can ask in the SMC thread on RCGroups
