Can't go wrong with either of them IMO. If money's no object I'd get the ProTek 100c packs from A main with the 5mm bullets or the new Trinity formula X packs. They are both in the $100 piece range.
does anyone have experience with Glacier batteries sold by Buddy RC?

Not needed at all with the distances we are dealing with. A 6" piece of 10ga wire vs 12ga is about .25milliohm in resistance difference. lol It's a small enough difference where the extra weight of the wire probably makes more of a difference than the electrical savings. 10ga looks cool though.

i recently purchased some 2s 6800 lipo. the problem is that the size of them is a very tight fit in the tray. I have to tie string around them to be able to pull them out. My 5800 lipo fit nice and easy to take out. Is there a way to modify the tray size to enable me to use these 6800 and not struggle taking them out? Thank you for your help.
