They are towerpros, I have just bought some from a guy in HK, and they are exactly the same as the towerpros I have been running, only difference is the sticker. There is another brand from a similar knock off type company called, hextronik HX12K, again similar to the towerpros, with some minor improvements, so the manufacturers say. I can land them in OZ for under $40/pair including shipping. So for that price I'm getting some to keep in the parts box.

I agree with dez, for the price you can afford to chuck 'em in the tool box just in case.
