I'm going to say my favorite is SMC but I buy them from whoever has the size I need really.

SMC, but they don't ship outside of the US any more which is a real pain. They really need a UK/EU distributor.

Turnigy is still my favorite after all this time. You can find cheaper batteries and you can find better batteries, but in my experience you can't find better batteries at this price. Gens Ace used to be the best bang for you buck, but their heyday has long since passed. |

Turnigy for the most part. They work, don't cost a fortune and fit most of my rigs.

I'll have to check out SMC. My favorite is the GForce Elite Series from Value Hobby. They are the batteries that I have had the best luck with. |

I wonder why so many people choose SMC, is its price or quality?

No issues with my 3s SMC, but I just ordered a Gens Ace 4s due to its physical size being a better fit for my application. Hopefully it treats me right!

My go to for power and capacity it's trinity. I've used them in my savage flux for years. That being said they can get pricey. I use a racers edge lipo in my sons scx 10 and I just got a gens ace in for my scx 10 2. We will see how it goes, but just as long as the c rating is up there it should put out good power. The flux batteries were a good price/performance buy, but for me trail trucks don't need super pricey batteries to perform well.
