I have been using these packs for over a year. They work very well and the 3800's are very well priced!! One big plus, you can charge them at a 2c rating!! The 5800's are definately WAY overpriced though....

I too have been using 3800's for about a year, and I love that you can charge at 2c when in a hurry.

What are you using to balance these (tap wise)?

I have only heard good things about these packs.

The price of these are a bit higher because the chemistry is so much safer then Lipo. When Apogee provides more pack options (4S etc), I'll probably get some.

I have always used an Astro Blinky. However, I am now trying a GP Equinox with optional charge leads to allow 5 amp charging and balancing through the unit. It should give me better life out of my packs, but only time will tell.
