As for you stating that all packs have the same cells in them, that isn't true. Companies like Turnigys and stuff are using cheap cells with many problems. Orion and Peak Racing (an affiliate to Orion), though, uses Kokam cells made in South Korea, and these Orion cells are definitley top-shelf stuff.
You're right. You should keep buying those "top shelf" packs and paying "top shelf" prices so when I want to buy some more hobby city packs they'll be in stock. Lol.
This debate happens every couple of months at least. I'll never convince you that turnigys are just as good, you'll never convince me to pay $200 for
a pack. As long as were having fun it's all good.
