Got the vampire saddles the other day (5400mah 60C). I haven't raced them yet but they seem really nice. good value as well compared to others available in the UK.

Can't compete with Hong Kong for prices but I like to buy from local shops, or we'll end up with no shops and no bits if we always buy everything from China. That said, they are very very good value from China.

I ran the Vampire 40c lipos last year and have been using the 60c ones for a few months now and they have been fantastic so far and are definitely good value for money compared to other competition packs out there :thumbsup:

The specs are:
length 137.28mm
width 46.15mm
hight 24.93mm
weight 280.6g

I've got the saddles as well, really good cells and well worth the money.

I've just got a set for my Durango (SX3) and will be interested to see how they compare against my current Orion 4500 45C

Got mine from RCLazy :thumbsup:

I also had the 40c saddles last year and have now got the 60c for this year, still using the 40's too as they have been no bother. Great value and come with the right cables for me.

I have a bit mixed feeling about these packs.

Already have saddle packs for 2 years and they are still in perfect condition.

With the stick packs on the other hand I had no luck.

Had to send 2 back under warranty after receiving them.
A few months later 1 of them is swollen so it's of no use anymore. Fingers crossed for the other one...

Bought speed power lipo's instead and they are playing in another league.

Speed Power are my first choice, but serious ££
