Has anybody else had these at all? Happy with them?

I was looking at a couple of different ones, one of which is a shorty for a similar price which seems like a good option in many ways because of the flexibility of placement that it gives.

4200 65C shorty for $32
5300 30C normal for $27
5600 50C normal for $35

I only have 4200 capacity batteries now, so that doesn't stress me, but they are 40c, and i'd rather not go back to 30c, but is that snobbish? Really the shorty looks like the best value to me?
A little more expensive but still pretty decent pricing is SMC batteries which are now available in Australia. Check out http://coast2coastrc.com.au/ for details. Justin is a good guy offering good service. Based on Gold Coast.
