The BELL RINGERS
This is the first series too reflect an aggressive High Power Life Cycle component to the results posted. The following is the list of the packs which were forced to give ground, also identified by the "*" beside their "C" rating:
CNHL G+ 5000 70C Started life as a 50C and after being subjected to the same regimen as the Panther it came apart at the seams. Ended as a 30C unit, the worst drop of the series.
HRB 6000 100C Started as a weak 40C, ended as a weak 35C
Zippy 6200 40C A good 40C unit, now a decent 35C
Admiral 5100 70C Another 50C start that proved unable to keep up with the Panther, but still ahead of CNHL at 35C
Hyperion 6000 45C Started a strong 35C, finished a good 30C
Zippy 5000 45C Started crapping out so quick and badly I don't even remember what it was. A poor 25C now
Venom 5000 50C Way over priced 30C quickly became a 25C
CNHL Blk 5000 40C Hung on to it's original 25C status but lost so much of it's voltage it gets an honorable mention for being so terrible.
Most packs lost some voltage, those that lost "C" rating lost the most.
The SHORT LIST IMO
SMC dominated in all weight classes. Dinogy's new 80C knocked the Panther off it's pedestal. The Turnigy HD is the best "heavy" value pack and the CNHL 65C hung in there as the best light weight value pack. Roaring Top would have gotten a positive recommendation if they hadn't sent me 3 out of 4 crappy matchers and totally ignored my request to return the 5100/80C I judged too poor to bother with testing. The new Liperior line targets CNHL prices and offers great performance:
New Lipo Battery company posted by MCSGUY
RCBattery.Com is officially launching this weekend. Personally, I have a soft spot for the owner, Richard. He was at the Lipo helm during HobbyKing's release of the Graphene line responsible for raising the industry bar. He pushed them towards truth in labeling and eventually left when HK started downsizing. Since then, IMO HobbyKing's lead in the Lipo field has slipped considerably.
It looks to me like his new Liperior line targets CNHL right between the eyes. Similar weight and performance packs at lower prices. I'm posting graphs of his 75C (RealC 50) and 45C (RealC 35) units which are very similar to CNHL's G+ 70C and Black Series 65C packs so I've put together a comparison sheet. Since I don't have the results post Power Life cycles I've pulled the CNHL results before their PL cycles to provide an apples to apples comparison.

Im waiting for more test for the Liperior but it looks like Turnigy HD is the best budget lipo out there that can stand many many use.
Pretty dissapointing stats for the CNHL G+ series, I guess I won't be getting another one.
