It would not be hard. You test them with the plugs they come with, if one comes with a tamiya connector and it fails to perform so be it. If one dominates with deans so be it. Fact of the matter is there are claims being made that are being proven to be false...


The test could be as simple as 30 packs getting hit with a 6amp charge 35amp dump and post the results, but i figure if a magazine is going to do this they may want to add more "meat" to the story.


It amazes me with the huge amount of bench racers we have on this forum that this topic has not taken off. Probably the number one item that makes us go fast in racing and barely a response for such a very important shootout..... Wouldn't it be cool to find out that a 30$ lipo can really hang with a 140$ lipo? We can Bench race all we want but until a real shoot out or test gets done all we got is advertised claims......


BUMP! BUMP!
