I also hear that smc make top notch lipos too. I just want the best battery out of the two. I just want to make sure if I get the spc 8k it wont perform worse than the true rc 10c ones.

I also found out that my poly rc 6k 25c batteries were made in china not korea. They were the worst performing battery I have at the moment. I have 2 sets of 6k 25c enerlands and the true rc 10ks perform just a hair betterw( better top speed and the trcs have a hair bit more punch than the enerlands) The only difference is that the 6ks dont get as hot during ther run!

In my old lst conversion the trcs will get to hot to use in about 5 mins where you can run out the whole enerland battery without issues. In my e-revo you can beat the crap out of both

So the enerland will take more ampdraw but at a price of voltagedrop and lack of acceleration

I hit 37.4mph with the enerlands 6k
I hit 38.8mph with the true rc 8ks (best acceleration)
I hit 35mph with the poly-rc 6k (this pack finally swelled yesterday at the 48th charge(pack temp was 115*f)) all its charges were with a fma 10s balancing charger at 1 c rate???????
I tried to get a warrenty claim with the lipos when I first got them but Chris at finedesigns told me I was full of crap and no way a 10c lipo is out performing it. Even the internal resistance of the cells were higher than all the other batteries. I have a flight power 3200 30c that out performes the poly rc ones too.(they are for my plane)

Sorry for the rant!
