i use them for my xr10, i love em, the 3s 460mah is just enough run time, and nice and tiny. and the 5c charge is great, i never have to change my batt, just charge it in the truck, takes 10 minutes to charge between rounds.

they seem to have a lot of dead cell issues and their customer service is not very good. It' tempting because they are cheap but it's a gamble on whether the battery will work when you get it. Just my experience. Out of 5 batteries ordered 2 had dead cells. Good luck man.

I don't know about the so called "dead cell and puff" complaints, i have ordered probably 50+ batteries from HK over the past couple years, for friends, family, and myself, spent over $2500 there, i use their packs exclusively, i have had a few puffed, but never that effected performance, and the only time i had one of them drop a cell, was when it was user error (i thought my 1/16 revo was a submarine, literally paddling it through a swamp, the battery didn't like that after the 4th pass.)

Same here.. I have never ever gotten a single bad turnigy pack.. and Nano tech ones are the best ones I have gotten yet..

I just ordered 4, 460mah nano-tech packs last friday. Im curious to see how they perform. From what I have read so far, they seem to be a good choice.

Got a few packs coming in the next week or so. I've been running turnigy 3s 1300's (4 packs) for over a year now and 0 issues.
