All the cells in both packs had 4.18volts when checked with voltmeter. That blew me away ? These packs are run hard in a Slash once every few months and the packs are stored at full charge for months at a time.
Is that dumb luck or he's super lucky with his packs qaulity ?????
The thunderpower pack does not surprise me, I have left enerland cell based packs sit for 6 months fully charged and they have lost very little voltage and always stayed in balance.

As for the venom pack, I have no experience with the 4000 mah cells, but the little 1800 cells were pretty good. They did not last very long, but I was pulling them pretty hard.
