Need some 3S cells, have dinogy and am very happy,but I need some inexpensive cells.

Hey guys I know this is a good place to ask, and the question has been asked before but not in this way for this purpose.

I need some 3S cells ~5kmAh, and I am going to buy some hobbyking units out of the US store, which cells should I choose?

Inexpensive is very attractive, but of the different cells, is there any advantage to choosing any specific ones, or are they all a crap shoot with no diference from those that have tested empirically?

The C rating is sufficient at 20C for my purpose, but does specific line between the nanotech,zippy, Turnigy, ect have any bearing on dependability,how well the cells are matched, and hopefully increase the chance of a no DOA cell?

What is my chances of getting a nonDOA and fairly well matched pack?

I do not have any plans for using these in my boat, and am VERY happy with my Dinogys, by far the best cells I have ever purchased, but are far overkill for the purpose at hand.

These will be used to power the electrical system on a CRG Road Rebel.
Currently using old mismatched cells, and they work great, but want something a bit better.

TIA

I have read ALOT of reviews on 3s batteries. as far as HK batteries go it seems that the turnigy non nanos are the ticket to cheap fairly reliable cells. I also just purchased dinogy lipos for my boat and can't wait to try them out based on what I have gathered from other peoples experience. good luck on your quest for cheap cells!
