I always figured the Graphene's were just a marketing gimmick. My 7500mah 90c's Ultimate's lasted 2 years racing and bashing in both my eBuggy and eTruggy without any puffing, balancing issues, or any loss of power as far as I could tell. The only thing that happened is that the bullets started to get too hot and melt the plastic case.
Bought a new set of 4600mah 90c Ultimate's (shorties for less weight) and cannot tell a single difference in power.
