If the actual cells, are the same in an smc pack vs a pack from hobby king, then why is smc, max amps soo much more?? Are they really making that much a profit. If it is like you say, then smc, or max amps gets their batteries from china, assembles them here in the u.s.a, then re sells them for a huge profit? I know one of the issues with hobby kings packs, are not the cells usually, its mostly the defects in assembling the packs that causes the faliures.
Something doesn't sound right with that...but maybe i am wrong.
