Default RCLIPOS.com best place for lithium batteries!

I was on what seemed to be a never ending search for some a123 batteries within
my (rediculously sad) budget.
I needed a battery that would work with my A123Racing SonicCharger, wich required
a battery pack with a single wire balance plug. The only packs I had ever seen with
only one balance wire were the A123Racing brand batteries, wich run around $60 bucks
for a 6.6v 2300mah pack.
I was searching google, and found www.rclipos.com .
I found the same batteries that are being sold for $60 bucks everywhere else, for only
$44.99!!! unbelievable! I placed an order online, and not 2 hours later I recieved a confirmation
email with an order number and a personal thank you from Pat, the owner of the company.
I wrote him back and asked a few questions about the batteries, and he answered right back
very quickly.
3 days later, a very well-packed box showed up in my mailbox. super quick delivery from
Santa Ana Cali to St. Louis Missouri!
Well anyway, i just wanted to share my great battery buying experience
please check out www.rclipos.com !!!

radicalrc.com is another great place to get them from. They will do custom packs for not much over the baseline price. I ended up with a 6.6V 2300 with two leads plus a balance tap for right at the $44 mark. It's been working great so far.

Just bookmarked the RC lipos site - lots of great stuff there!

I purchased my 123's from radicalrc and they made them just the way I wanted them. I waned one lead for charging and power and they did it. Works perfect with the cellpro charger. I will be buying more from radical, they are great to deal with.

I just placed an order for three 25C/50C 2200 3S packs at only $49 each! And these are Polyquest batteries!
They also have A123's in 1100mah preassembled or as single cells. I almost bought the single cells, but only $27 for an assembled 2S pack with a Dean's connector and balance tap is just too good a price to pass up.
