If you are looking for the industry standard Sub "C" NiMh cells, currently the 4200 world cells seem to be pretty incredible.

You can't go wrong with really any of the matchers who sell direct.

I like Dave at VooDoo www.voodoocells.com

But there are dozens of others as well.

HyperForm, JBR Cells, Power Push Batteries and TQ Cells are all sponsors here on HobbyTalk and all have very good stuff. There are also places like Lefthander R/C, Murdock R/C and others which are online hobbystores who can probably hook you up too.

Fusion on e-bay has good deals. I picked a brick 24 cells for $112 to match and build my own. That is like $4.66 a peice.

Maxamps is another place or boom boom batteries.

The 4200 is the new standard in NiMH batteries. These are not Li-Po they are talking about.

With todays 4200's , its not worth the time or cost to do the matching yourself !!

Call a company like " Pro-Match " and they'll put together anything you need
at a very fair price . :thumbsup:

Alot of these bulk suppliers , not matchers , buy cells from other matchers at a very cheap price because they don't meet a high enough standard.

YES , IN THE BATTERY WORLD , YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR :)

Jerry Flynn at OHP is another Great Matcher. Great guy to boot. And Yes like everyone says you get what you pay for. If you stay with a reputable matcher like OHP, TQ, Promatch,Whiplash,Voodoo... you wont go wrong, they all offer great packs.

With batteries being so cheap now it's not worth the time or effort to rematch cells,just keep fresh cells and let the old cells be your practice cells,I buy new cells before a big race and they become my practice or club race packs inbetween.
