Review on AWANFI 3S Lipo Battery 5000MAh 60C 11.1V Hard Case Battery With Deans T Connector For RC Car Truck Quadcopter Airplane Helicopter Boat (1 Pack) by Garon Tafolla

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Inexpensive but probably wont last

I was looking for an inexpensive battery for a basher truck that would only be used occasionally. I wanted something cheap enough that I didn't care much if it died early from less than conscientious battery management/storage.Pros: This pack fit the bill as its very inexpensive - about half the cost of high quality name brand 5000 packsCons: It doesn't delivery rated capacity even brand new out of the box. I did a 1C (5 amp) test cycle on an FMA powerlab, probably the most accurate charger available to consumers, and it only managed 4600mAh brand new. And that's at 1C (5Amp). I cant imagine it will deliver anywhere near that if you load it to 20 or 30A.Bottom line: A cheap battery that's probably fine for occasional car bashing if you understand its probably really a 3000-4000 pack in a 5000 box. I would not trust this brand for anything critical, and absolutely wouldn't buy airplane packs from them.
