USA warehouse now open. Our USA warehouse is now open! Low cost shipping and an ever growing variety make ordering from the US warehouse even better value!
What would be faster to wait till they get these in the usa warehouse or just order from the international. last batteries I ordered were out of stock in usa warehouse so I ordered from international and the next day they were in stock in usa and I had to wait 30 days to get them from oversea's.
I would wait until there in stock at the USA warehouse. The shipping is real fast. Just check the e-mail notification box and they will e-mail you when they arrive back in stock.
Most packs you see here will have th xt60 connector. Much better connector, and you can buy a set of 5 connectors here at HobbyKing and it is WELL worth the switch! Here are the connector www.link
I change all of the connectors to EC3. Those are the ones that are standard on all E-flite models. They are easy to solder and easier to fit and pull apart than Deans.
I didn't even know about the ec3 connector, how long has it been out? Why is it better than the deans? or the xt60? I don't have any problem pulling apart the deans. I haven't purchased an E-flight model, most of my models I scratch build.
Sking0369,
Here is the link here on HK where I buy them. They have been out forever. My hands sweat and the Deans connectors slip when I try to pull 'em apart. The EC3's have ribs on sides of connectors. I also think that Deans are harder to solder. After I found a YouTube video of a guy in Russia that had an ingenious way to solder EC3's, I was hooked. It's so simple now.

I bought 2 of these. One of min came with the cells stacked askew. So wrather then having a battery that is nice and rectangular its crooked. Basically if you look end wise at it it looks like this /// instead of lll. Very minor issue. Also of issue was that the ends of the cells were not taped as tight and something could get inserted into the space where the wires are. I also own 2 of the same capacity but lower discharge rated version that I bought about 6 months ago. The older lower discharge ones I own show none of these sloppy assembly issues. All in all though they seem to work pretty well.

I have two of these and one 30C version of same battery. All are stellar performers. I have them in my MaxJet F-117a Nighthawk EDF jet. The initial thrust delivery is excellent and stays consistent across the power band. I run them at 80pcnt to 100pcnt throttle and have never had one puff yet. I'm sold on these and they are at the USA Warehouse which makes them quicker to get!
Keep 'em coming HK...

I have been using these on my Blade 450 with no problems. Getting a solid 6 minutes of run time with 25pcnt capacity left. I don't do 3d as of yet so run times might vary. Balance is great with these as they are about 15 grams heavier than the eflite battery. Also shipping was surprisingly fast being I live in the States.
