Looking for a sanity check/opinions on this. I need a new set of 3s packs to run in my Kraton exb and other assorted 3s trucks. One of my SMC extreme graphene V2s has one cell that is triple the IR of the other (28, 8, 8.5). The other battery is fine. Last run i did on my kraton the one SMC pack was 115-120F afterwards. Motor and esc were around 110F. I don't olan on running that SMC in my kraton again. Looking for a sub $100 option and considering these:
-SMC DV extreme 135c 5200mah
My current SMCs have lots of pep, but they are too sensitive amd lasted less than a year even with meticulous care. I'm a bit sour with SMC. Also not sure if 38mm thickness x2 will fit in the EXB.
-CNHL racing 120c 5200mah
I have no experience with CNHL brand, but the specs seem good.
-Zeee soft case 120c 6000mah
I own a pair of Zeee 3s premium 120c batteries that work well, but not nearly the same punch as my SMCs had, I expect these to perform similarly.
