Ordered two of theses LifePo4 packs. When I open the package i found one of the two had swollen cells. I immediately opened a RMA filled it out along with a copy of the order and sent the battery back to Hobby King in Jacksonville, AR. Mailed on 05/05/15 they received it on 05/0715. Heres the tracking number 9114999944314076238340. I have sent emails to Hobby King and never get any reply. With almost 200 orders you think they would want to keep this customer happy. Poor Customer Service Hobby King.
The other LifrPo4 battery is jus fine

I'm really disappointed with this buy.. About 2 months and just 2 cycles, 1 out of 3 cells became puffy. I used to recommend LiFePo4 batteries to buddies because of it's high durability then this happened. I'm still using it in low discharge application but I'm just not sure how long it would hold up in comparison to Lipo. I'll update the review if it ever burst into flame..

I bought two packs before half years ago and use in my Multiplex Mentor continuous discharge about 15-20 Ampere.
Charged about 15-20 times with 0.5 C.
The capacity is down to 3500 mAh and all packs puffy.
"Twice the lifespan and much safer than LiPoly" this is a blablabla...
I have very bad experience!

Battery puffed after the second charge. I wouldn't waste my money. Buy Lipo and just follow charging instructions. This battery also is less powerfull.

I have bought one some time ago. The battery keeps getting "bigger" for no apparent reason without using it!!! Total 4 times of usage batttery is seems to have capacity but is almost 2ice the size. Do not waste your money on these!

Very good battery, on my Traxxas Rustler VXL(stock), lasts about 30 min in the sport mode and 60 min in the training mode.
Before you buy please have in mind that the low voltage protection from the Velineon ESC works only for LiPo (3.7v cell), LiFe (3.3v cell) must be used in NiMh mode but unfortunatly this will damage the cells shortly. (mine is already damaged after ~ 20 uses)
The only way to avoid this is not to play until has no more current but this is hard to realise.

Quality of pack build is good.
Sale price was good.
I bought 2 of these and on the first charge, one cell buldged/puffed out.
Too much trouble to send back so I ripped the bad pack apart and made it a 2S2P pack.
Next time I will purchase only nS1P (where n is any number). Having a nS2P makes the pack more vulnerable to cell imbalance. I did have a PCB/BMS circuit connected. I was never able to actually use it in it's 3S2P configuration.
If another one fails, then I'm done with these packs. I ordered 3 of the 6S2P and 2 of the 2S2P packs of the same type.
