In my case, it was the end where the connections are. Like I said, that can be accepted I suppose, but to be off on the width?? Did they use extra thick heatshrink or something? That is unacceptable, especially that much; 3mm is just about 1/8"!

Of course all packs can't be measured, but come on! Just measure the largest one, and add 1 or 2 mm just to be safe.

Funny you should mention Elite, I just got my 3s 3300mAh packs in today. They are advertised as being 135 X 45 X 19.5. They measure at 140 X 48 X 22. Hmm, that's quite a bit off! Luckily my tray will allow this discrepancy! Then again, these were supposed to be 30C cells, but the packs I got say 35C. They don't have 35C 3300mAh cells on their site, so these are either new versions, or they just bumped the rating...
