I usually consider Maxamps prices at 10% off their listed price, since you can get that if you sign up for their "discount membeship" and spend $100. It does make a difference when it's a $284 pack that's now $255.60... or $241.40 if you spend $500 with them.

But I agree their prices have become too close to the competition. They used to be cheaper.

I would recommend Kokam's 30C packs but it appears they are discontinued, which is weird.

This is a good point, I had figured that tower usually has some sort of discount that could be applied to the flightpower packs.

I do agree that they have raised their prices, and not their product performance. I bought all of my maxamps packs when they were cheaper, and did not lose much money thanks to their price increase when I sold them. Thanks maxamps!

My project that I'm building funds for right now is a Maxx with a FLM chassis, a center diff, hybrid bulks with 43/10 gears and a Neu 1521 2.5d if I can get it, or a 1y. Esc will be a MMM, and batts will be 6s Flightpower. As for maxamps packs, I am also consideered a "hater" because I once bought 6 maxamps packs, and within the year 5 of them puffed. one actually set my entire truck on fire! I have pics somewhere.....
