For anyone still doubting the Battery Guru - lincpimp, or any other member who's had issues with MA products or "service"
please know we are only here to further enjoyment of the hobby.

I had my own run in with a pack being held hostage by MA for over 3 weeks as well, and I was dealing with Alex, who is supposedly much fairer about returns and such. I ended up paying more to get that pack replaced. I would never EVER consider buying anything other than adapters from them.

Warranty? How about putting your $ into a product that will likely never need warranty support!

MA covers up their inferiority with an advertising budget that might put P*psi to shame.

Here is my recommendation- it doesn't matter what you buy as long as it's NOT MA.

They will keep churning out garbage and charging YOU for the advertising- I call that predatory and misleading at best.

You've been warned!

Imagine the business they (MA) would have if they had Enerland cells in there packs. With all the marketing they have.

Imagine the inflated ratings and the cost... The only reason they can do all of the advertising is the stupid low prices they pay for the lipos... I would rather not pay for ads and buy something that has the performance i am looking for. I will not buy anything from MA, everything they sell is overpriced.

I totally agree. Why buy basically a generic celled pack when you can get a Enerland based pack for cheaper.

To support the MA marketing budget.
