I run four packs of 3 cell + 3 cell NiMH saddle configuration for my B44, four packs of side-by-side 6-cell NiMH for the rest of my vehicles.

Rest of the packs, they're no prize winners either, they are 4 to 5 year old 3300 to 3600 mAH NiMH, most are GP-based cells (I think GP cells are the best NiMH out there, reliable and trustworthy). But they run strong though...
Wait til ya throw a Thunder Power 40c 5400 saddle in the B44. WOW! Best part is you can race 3 qualifiers and the main with just ONE pack. Just top it off after the 2nd round and it's all good.
