I do / did. I'm not impressed by their quality control - one of my 3 diff cases was unusable and they don't respond to email. Won't be using HR again.

they'll work good for about 30-40 cycles, then not so much.

i know it's too late for you, but for others looking for high capacity, high discharge batteries for this truck, check out SMC's packs. only a few bucks more than the nano's and they're much higher quality batteries.

IP Intellect 70c 6800mah packs are the best I've had yet in my SCTE, including the 90c carbons, and many others.. week after week strong as the last way way better than nanotech packs, not as cheap but a nice price tag too. SMC recent packs I have not tried but I had a lot of bad luck with them a year or so ago.. several poofed.

I ran the 6600 nano's all season no probs with my tenshock sc401 4600. I guarantee you they've had more than 40 cycles on them and they're still going strong.

+1

I have had my 6600's for a month or two and they are golden!
Had my 6000's as long as they have been out, 6 packs and after that much time 3 are slightly puffed but still work amazingly well! I still have them as loaners if somebody needs a pack to try out.

you know what? i thought that too. i decided to buy one of the SMC's for the heck of it. i figured my 6.0 nanos were still going strong. i thought that until i put the SMC in there. it was like going up a tooth or two on the pinion. the difference was that dramatic. so it wasn't until i ran a fresh battery that i realized my 30-40 cycle nano's were WAY down on punch.
