Hextronic batteries a lot cheaper but perform as well as FP, TP etc?

AM am so tempted to take the plunge and order. But just so before I do this, I would like to hear from actual people who have used them. Please list your setups and amp draw if possible and the nos of cycles so far.

Bro when was this? Looks like they've replaced the 2150 with 2200. Wonder any big change. I'm interested in the 2200 3s and 4s.

Cheers

HXT D9 2200mAh 3S 20-30C lipo pack

I got this 3S pack, 2 of them. The have been charged for 14 times since I got. There is a slight bloat in both packs but there are no problem holding the voltage. Flew with each of them for 10mins only, voltage never drop below 10V each flight.

Its in my Trex 450XL heli, drawing an avg of 14A and burst 19A only.

These packs can definately pack a punch but long term usage is still unknown.

HXT D9 2200mAh 4S1P 20-30C lipo pack

Got this 4S pack and repack it into 2S2P. Used it once so far on my Yamaha boat. Did a burst run and clocked max 94A on my watt meter. This caused the deans connectors to melt and fused together.

But the pack no problem at all, no bloating or watever. Maybe because its still new, ran it once only. Will monitor it in subsequent runs.

Just ordered 2 pcs of the 2200mAh 3S 20-30C lipo packs online. Will test it out once arrived. Also ordered the 6 channel Blue Arrow Single Conversion receiver to test it out as it's real cheap i.e. USD 16.

Did you guys see the prices for other items?

e.g. Hextronic 9 gram/1.6Kg/0.12 sec micro servo at USD 3.65 each and a 25Amps ESC at USD 12

How does these guys make money?
