And Hobby Partz is the only company I know that posts performance graphs of the batteries they sell.

Scatterbrains & Rockslyder are you getting those from rclipos.com? 45c or 65c version? Have you tried both for a comparison? Thx

I run these. I can get two easy courses with a Holmes 22t motor, or one hard course.

I use this one it last forever I only charged it once for about a hour @ 2amps! I mount it on top of the steering servo so I don't have to add any weigh to any of the tires! traction is unreal!

I've been using these for ages now.

Fantastic packs.
About 20 mins run time and 15 min charge time (5C ;))

Fairly small and light weight and very cheap.

I saw a little kid at my last comp with the same one on his Micro Crawler. Quite a site.

X2 Very pleased with the performance, size, build quality, price and run times from these cells. Don't comp but when I do I will run the little one and I'm getting a couple of the 1300 for my MM Baja.
