I'm leary of these ultra-high "C" ratings. I seriously doubt the battery can live up to those claims. All these cells are made in China, and all China is about is mass production. IF cells were actually as powerful as some manufacturers claim, we'd all be running them.

It's been proven over and over that to obtain output with thise ultra-inflated C ratings is almost impossible given the physical size of the packs.

However, they still may be very good packs, it's just those high C ratings are just too high to be real.

If you try one, please post back and let us know so others may also enjoy a reasonably priced LiPo battery.
