Packs should show up on Tuesday.
Are these the ones?

So that's a shorty hard case w/ a better IR than the 4300 factory spec that I have now?

Ordered one of those and a full size race spec pack. We'll see how they run - I should be able to tell pretty well w/ my stock short course - I'm very familiar with the times I'm running and will easily notice any difference.

Yes the IR is lower on the current 4670-2S2P than the 4350-2S2P.

Really wish we could use IR ratings instead of stupid C rates. Maybe I will post IR ratings on our site in the near future and get people use to IR.

Looking forward to your feedback once you get a chance to try them. Due to high amounts of orders we will do our best to ship them out as fast as possible but it may take a few days to get caught up.

Any news on when 50 or 70c shorties will come back in stock?

By the way, i had a chance to run your 50c shorty in my tlr22 sct. And loved it! No complaints here.

We have some shorties back up on the site.

http://www.smc-racing.net/index.php?...ory&path=67_91

Factory informed us that they have more of the higher IR packs and gave us a better deal so I lowered the price on them. For those who bought some in the past 2 days at the higher price I will be refunding the difference via Paypal.

So even though you have them as higher IR they are still lower than older "good" stock?

We use the ESR IR meter to test packs to know how to rate them.

http://www.smc-racing.net/index.php?...product_id=103

The 4350-2S2P is around 7 to 8mOhms.

The higher IR 4670-2S2P are in the high 5 to mid 6mOhms.

The regular 4670-2S2P are in the mid 3 to low 4mOhms.

For the higher IR regular packs they are about 1mOhm higher than what we expect them to be.

My post is concerning the shorty packs listed this week.

Email me at [email protected] if there is an issue instead of going back and forth in this thread.

Thanks.
