In 21 and smaller, I use what Mic put up and/or the 800s that Daniel sells. Just FYI, the ones Daniel sells are also rated at 5C continuous (and 10C burst).
In 45 and larger boats we use the 1100 mah, 10C Lifesource batteries.

Been using them for years. Have not seen any difference from the Hyperions I paid 4 times the price.

Joe,
What packs are you looking for ?
I have LiFe packs. The 1300 flat receiver and 1800 cube receiver packs are in stock. 1300's are 3 for $48 shipped and the 1800 cubes are 3 for $68 shipped.

hi, i have a question about the short balance plugs.i do not take my radio box cover off to charge my batts(still run ni-mh and charge thru the 3 way switch wire) and most of my batts packs are mounted far away from my access hole/plug. how are you guys doing it?? do they make an extension card for balance plug?/ thanks,mike.

Yes they do.
2S JST-XH extension cables are readily available. I usually have them. Sent one out yesterday.
I can tell you that lithium packs will not tolerate a damp radio box. If they are dry as a bone maybe but usually want to take the packs out and charge in a safe location and store in a dry location.
You absolutely should be removing the pack for this but to each his own I don't want to tell you how to treat your things better than that but you probably should.
Always best to use a balance extension cable when charging anyhow so you are not putting wear and tear on the charger or balance board jacks plugging and unplugging all the time.
