Default My Elite 2000 battery pack from Cheapbatterypacks.com just took 2300 maH!!

I couldn't believe it! I've never been able to charge a battery with MORE maH's than it was rated. Normally I get a slight percentage less than the maximum. When I charged it this evening, after plugging it into my crawler, I got better performance than I get with even my Orion 3900 stick pack!!! I'm VERY impressed with CBP's.com so far.

the pack is a 4/5A pack, and so far I've never seen such good throttle/servo performance with ANY of my other batteries.

A+ to CBP's.com.

--edit: using 989 superbrain charger.

Still, that's a first for me, and a welcome one at that!

I got a $30 elite 1500 pack that I thought I paid to much for but the pack on three occasions has taken over 1680 and it wasn't ever under 6.6v. Pretty cool

Thats actually normal for any true capacity pack. Unless the pack is not fully discharged, then the pack should take several hundres Mah more than its rated capacity. Thats a cheap way to find out of you got jipped on buying a false rated pack.
