I apologize for correcting you, but 12C is giving too much credit.

The Graph, the Maxamps Lipo sucked at, was less than 8C.

There's no way to know what they are putting inside the hardcase packing that are being sent to market.

One thing is for sure though, I'm not curious enough, only to be disappointed, and give them any of my money.

Maximum RIPOFF!

No worries dude I though I was being a liitle generous with the rating to but for the advertised rating it was close enough for me. I dealt with their packs once years ago and that was enough for me. Run 90% turnigy packs now not that I'm proud of it to support them being from china but it's cost effective and they perfom well so that leaves me more cash for cc products!

I read through the rcgroups postings and Brandon defends the C ratings that Maxamps posts. Its a shame to see him do that after we have explained what they mean and he probably now must realize that the batteries they sell for numerous reasons cant put out the current levels that they claim. At first I thought about giving him the benefit of the doubt and thought he just didnt understand what they meant, but it seems like he does know what he is doing.
Lets face it, if they posted 8C ratings then they wouldnt sell any batteries at all. All they have is their marketing that keeps them going.

oooohhhh.....


so it was bs ;)

Oooooh...............

So this is why Maxamps didn't want to publish any real world testing against the competition!

FINALLY a half respectable industry expert giving a real reveiw of the pack!






We all knew it anyway.


And I have a conffession that I fit into the 'never owned a maxamps' group but my excuse is I have been guided by the 'creme del a creme' RMC:yipi::angel:

Just saw the video- MA are going to be frothing at the mouth about this video; and Im glad about it too.

Post it everywhere and drive those con-artists out of business!

Surprize!!! Not!!!
 

Well aren't we all surprized about these results? I mean come on even the Maxamps lovers would have to know that these packs are no better than any other packs, but yet priced as if they are made of real gold. How may people on here will rebut these results? Yes finally some one took the time to do some testing and comparison graphs up against some of the more reasonably priced packs and came up with real world results and we all knew what the outcome was going to be. So of course the whole warranty situation is also a bunch of crap, because who in their right mind would want to pay that much for a warranty return when you can purchase a better performing pack for much less. I wonder how the people who bought these packs prior and had to pay extra for this so called warranty feel about Maxamps now? Its like he stated you can purchase three or four packs from one of their competitors and come out much better performance wise and save yourself some money. From a consumer perspective I think that Maxamps should change their flame wraps to a steaming turd with flat tires on it.

i think i might make an account over at nitrokillers.com and post up this video. I wonder how long it would stay up there for?

MA is just form of legalized scamming for profiteers.
A fool and his money is easily departed<= That is how/why there business model works.

Most people Ive met with MA after discussing real world dynamics with them they dump that rump and score real Lipoes by selling there overprices POS to some other uneducated idiot on fleabay/Craigslist.
Then score 2+ of the "Made in China" lolz.

To quote the great Nelson muntz, "ha-ha!". Wow a 30amp bulb discharge, think I mentioned that before but about the results I expected. Pretty sad though couldn't get anymore runtime than a 5000 with that extra 1500 mah that's supposedly in there. Might have to throw this up on RC-tech just to piss people off.

already there...

noobs don't know how to embed vids...:diablo:

Is it wrong to enjoy watching that video.:lol:

Funny
 

yea isn't it funny I found myself smiling through most of it as well. It is kind of like what we already knew, but finally it is out there for everyone to see. Soon even the Maxamps fans will also abandon them, and in less than a year they will be much like an insect shot by RAID with their legs up in the air. I am sure most of the people had their doubts about Maxamps, but unless they can produce proof that this video is false they are doomed. Can any of you see this happening?:lol:

I don't see it happening, they have the magazines in their pockets with ads. All the mags say nothing but great things about maxamps (and pretty much everything else...). This does help get it out into the open though, and I'm really glad Jang did it.
So long as there are noobs that go out to buy a magazine to see what's new and hot, there will be noobs buying Maxcraps.
