What batteries do you run?

So I've been running my Bully on 3S packs from Hobby King and while I haven't had any real issues I want to step up to 4S or possible some smaller 3S packs. What do you run? I'm looking at ideas for new packs and thought I would check out what everyone else likes. I'm looking for light weight and small physical size. Price is not really an issue but quality is.
 
I run 3S Elite 1300's in my 2.2 Bully, a bit overkill in capacity.
I'm running 3S 825's (?) in my XR-10 (dual 35T motors) due to size. Even that is a little large for a comp pack.

I typically buy from www.CheapBatteryPacks.com since the packs are good, price is alright, they support this site and I can order with whatever plugs & balance ports I want.
 
I have run a turnigy nano tech. Was not to happy with it. It essentially died after about 10 or less cycles. I love my hobbypartz skylipos.

I had not considered pack from CheapBatteryPacks yet, thanks for that tip. I am looking at some Thunder Power G6 pack right now, seems to be they have a pretty good reputation and size seems good. There is not alot of room in the BJ4 chassis so the 850 seems to be what I am wanting. 1300MaH are just too big.
 
I'm a huge fan of Thunder Power batteries. I run the 45C 1750 3s with a 3300kv Pro4 in my scaler, and they are the only batteries I haven't puffed. I've puffed some Hyperion, Elite, Blue Rhino, and a couple others that I can't remember. My next purchase are some TP 65C 1800mah.
