Reedy 6500 comes in at 2.4 & 2.6.

Both with about 15 cycles on them, maybe auto's are older packs... guess I could see those numbers after a year of use.

The low IR race packs from smc are a fantastic deal, 6500 & 7200.
What charger are you getting these IR values. I believe you are using a different rating. I have never had a Lipo show an IR rating lower that 3 or 4 on my Hyperion. My Thunder Power and Hyperion packs show anywhere from 3 to 8. My SMC packs show around 15. I think your 1.7 to 1.8 is 17 to 18 on the Hyperion. I know that Auto2 uses the same charger that I do. A rating of 6 on my Hyperion is great. I will be getting a 4s pack to try out myself and will report back.
