cheap "Honk Kong" lipos

I thought I seen a thread on here about cheap Hong Kong lipos from ebay, but now I cant find it. Has any one tried these, and if so are they worth buying. thanks

Try Hobby king. The rhinos are good and so are the zippys and Turnigys.

The Hobbyking lipos are brilliant. The only soft case packs I prefer to them are Hyperion.

+1 for the Hobby King Lipo's too.
I found this site recently and have some 4800's 2s coming (only $12.50 each), really cheap so I'm not expecting too much.

I've had nothing but problems with Hobby King Turnigy lipos-- several dead packs upon receiving them and no practical way to return them...
Buyer beware.

I like all the Turnigy I have and I have 16 packs so far no problems
as for the one at that site I would stay away from them. they look weak to me.

I've got 2 packs coming to see what they are like... I normally use Zippy's from HK and have had no issues with them.
Will report once I receive and run a few cycles through them.

Never had a single problem with any HK lipos. Great for the price. Never got a bad one out of the box.

Turnigy LiPo are amazing
I prefer Turnigy never had a problem, Flightmax are lower qualityand too much bad cells
On Ebay, HiTopMax are the best, I' ve got a set of HiTopMax 11,1V 4500mAh 35C those batteries are high quality

Someone opened these up and claims they're the same cells as the Turnigies from HK:
404

And they seem to be in stock more often than the Turnigies these days.
