5,000mah and 10,000mah NiMH 5 cell battery packs

[WoodiE]

I've noticed over on OnlyBatteryPacks.com has a 5,000mah and 10,000mah MiMH battery packs for sell at 32 and $52. Have any of you guys used either of these or similar battery packs?

I'm currently running a 3200mah in my FG Monster Truck but have been looking at the 4,200's for a bit until I seen these two.

Sounds a good buy!!!! But ask the question if they are matched cells?

To my surprise I found that DDM has a nice deal on a HPI Baja hump pack - http://www.davesmotors.com/store/product2032.html I just got mine and am pleased.
Not a help with our Fg's though I know.:blush:
I agree with the matched set though, I've heard it will make a noticeable difference.

UPDATE:

Only SC packs are matched for competitive racing.

Nice research BTB, but what are SC packs? I don't seem them listed on the site.

SC is the name of the company that matches the cells.
They are a trusted source for matching.

IMO, you don't need to pay the extra for a matched pack for what your doing. If you want the comfort of having a matched set just go with a set of "Sport" cells. They are the lowest rated sets of matched cells.

but the 10,000 mah are D cells. You might need some modification to the battery mount.
