Default Mystery ESC?

I tried searching, but no dice, so I ask you all... Has anyone heard of a Mystery ESC? http://cgi.ebay.com/Mystery-100A-Bru...QQcmdZViewItem Have any of you tried this? It seems VERY cheap, and it says it can handle 16 cells!!!! I dn't plan on going Lipo any time soon, so will this work? 100amp, 110amp burst. programmable brake,...

Thanks
Dima

they are for brushless aircraft only...and they are not reversible ,forward only
Seemed fun to experiment with for the price to me at one point but I decided against it ,get yourself a decent ESC Castle Creations , you will be better off at the end of the day ...

Chinese Lipos you may get away with but ESC's never IMO!!!

and if I was in the US I wouldn't even bother buying Asian I am in Asia therefore I have checked out this stuff...

Mystery ESC > Don't Bother!!!

That just means that you could probably manually switch it to do that but there is no option of reverse ...

from what ive learned you get what you pay for.
dont expect to get a 14 dollar esc and think its gonna have the same performance as a 100+ dollar one.

and i think that that esc is for air aplications and forward only
