GP4300 vs. IB4200
 

Im going to purchase 8 cell packs shortly and I've been researching these cells(GP4300 & IB4200).
From what I've read the 4200's seem to have the edge and actually cost a bit more. That kinda suprised me.
Does anyone have an opinion to share...?

IB4200s cost more? Not sure where your looking but they are cheap as chips here: ;)

They are the new SHV ones to. The IBs, have got better reviews than the GPs, in magazines.

BK is not enthusiastic about both cells.

The GP33 and 3700's are more durable.

At maxamps an GP4300 8 cell pack costs $79.99 the IB 4200 SHV 8 cell pack costs $84.99

The GP33 and 3700's are more durable.

|I thought Mike sold them for 5 bucks each..

Serum will you please explain this :rolleyes:

In terms of amount of charges.

I have got this IB3800's and BK said they are worthless in durability compared to the GP3300's.. Dafni has got GP3300's and correct me if i am wrong Daniel, but he charges them about 2 times a day, those cells must have had minimal 800 charges, and they are still going strong. (they are now 28-2900 cells though, but they still WORK!)

I have the IB4200's and they kick ass.... The punch is unreal.

I have had great luck with the ib 3800. I had good luck with gp 3300 and 3700. The gp 4300 and ib 4200 are little to new.

The IB4200 SHVs have a higher voltage and lower internal resistance than the orgionals, IB have worked hard on improving them and removing faults.

The SHVs "Super High Voltage" are pushing 1.22v+. ;) They look to be amazing spec' cells.

Sounds good, but this says nothing about their durability..

I've got the latest generation of the GP3300's they claim to do a 1.213V@20A load. My eagletree will show if they are the right numbers..

If you let them set they won't have the same numbers.
Some of the testers accually cycle them like 10 times to get the correct balancing numbers.
So if they been sitting a while you may have to cycle them back to life.

They will be cycled a few times leroy.

I have had a great success with the Gp3300's mike sells (EVO Cells) . Compared to my old ib 4200's (which are in heaven now) it is like comparing a stock maxx to a hopped up SM. The gp's really are durable.

Serum, where did you get those cells? I like the sounds of them!

I have had a melt down of a gp 3300. I have not of the ib 3800. The ib 4200 and gp 4300 are new. Like every thing new they may have some bugs to workout. I would buy the ib 3800 or gp 3300 or gp 3700. I just not sure about the ib 4200 or gp 4300 yet.
