Default battery suggestions

I just ordered a new Yeti xl and now realized that none of my batteries will work. So I am looking for some suggestions on a set of good 3s and 2s lipos. I like Venom but am open to other brands.
thanks for the help and tolerating the newb questions

Ive been really happy with gens ace. Great price for what you get. I have a few Venom batteries as well and have no complaints. But I never pay full price for them. if I see them on sale or for cheap on the bay I'll snatch one up.

SPC I am waiting for their next order so I can get more. I have been using just SPC for the last 5 years and could not be happier. great product and a US company. Small mom and pop operation with a killer product. If you have your doubts call and talk to Tom. Owner and he actually answers the phone.

Pro Mod Steve,

I've been trying to keep checking on the SPC 3S batteries for when they're back in stock but forget sometimes. Would you mind making a post if you notice when they are or something? I'm sure a lot of people here would like to get some as I've only heard good things about them

Gens Lipo out of stock. SPC out of stock. Any idea where I can find some good batteries in stock. Is anyone running Turnigy?

I got some Bias 3S batteries that have done pretty well.
I'm new to the hobby so I don't know what to look for exactly. One of the two I received wouldn't balance (bad cell?) and after sending a few pictures they replaced it with no cost to me.

I'm using Zippy Compact 4S 5000mah 25C and I'm more than happy with them. Good running time, don't get hot at all on MMX/2200 Castle

SMC 9000 2s

Just picked up a set of these. fit nice and snug in the battery compartment.

They also have a 3s 5600mah battey in stock too. Price in pretty good IMO.

I had just bought a set of 3s 5600 zippy compacts, one of which is junk. HK wont do a thing about it either. Bummer for me, but it's my first bad experience with them, so who knows.
