Yeah i know that argument, thats what it is too. That can be said about anything. Im betting that these Zippy, Turnigy, Rhino packs are ok. Most of what i have read seems to point to that. Its like an old Chevy versus Ford argument. People are welcome to pay high dollar for packs, I can buy 3 for what they would pay for 1, if even 1 pack is bad outta the 3 its still a pretty good deal. Ill give an honest assessment on the Turnigy 4s1p 5000mAh 25c and the Rhino 5s1p 4900mAh 20c. both have had 2 cycle on them and only issue i had was on teh Rhino pack, it had one of the cells go below 3.0 volts. I corrected that and its back to normal. Ill continue to update on these packs if ya guys like

I'd say its more like Kia vs Toyota, but that's me.

Neu has great prices on lipos if you can wait for the good deals. Plus they are high quality and matched cells. My zippies are powerful too, but so far they have a 50% failure rate after a year of use. Have not ever lost any other packs before, plus they always took a lot of time to balance.

In the end, the Neus I got were only ~20% more for a much better batt. Its hard to beat deals like that.
