"24 batteries in 4 years... wow... this guy MUST be an expert (expert WHAT) and i've been using the same Nicad 1100 for 2 years now... plus the same Nimh 2000 for about 1.5 years...

There must be something wrong with ME..

Are LiPos expensive?
No, not necessarily if you know where to shop -- just like everything else in life! But if you compare batteries with the same capacities, you will find that LiPos are indeed cheaper!

You'll notice he didnt tell you where to shop... strange... i'll do the foot work and get back to you on actual prices on LiFePO4... we have an old saying... no pictures... it never happend

From what I know so far: life span(cycles) better then lipo and safety(no fire) and charge time (really fast... good for airplane/car guys who drain there Bats in like 15 to 20 minutes) heavier then lipo

Cheers
