I haven't bought much gear from TBS but in Jan I wanted to try one of their much hyped Lipo's.
I purchased a 4S 3.3Ah TBS LiPo -> http://team-blacksheep.com/products/prod:tbslipo33 (http://team-blacksheep.com/products/prod:tbslipo33)
$75 is ALOT to pay for one Lipo but when it arrived I was amazed by its performance.
It was by far the best Lipo it had ever used, it was the same size but lighter than my Turnigy 3Ah packs.

I could fly longer & it would hold its voltage until the very end & I was putting over 3 amps back in when charging!
After around 20 cycles the voltage on one cell started to drop off - then 2 weeks ago that cell died.
A support ticket was raised & without hesitation TBS shipped me a brand new Lipo! Ive had Lipo's DOA from HK which I just bin because it isn't worth it to return it.
To have a Lipo replaced after nearly 12 months of use is unheard of in my FPV world, well done TBS!
Makes a nice change hearing that, I too suffer from the Hobbyking lipo blues and most time bin them and save the terrible customer service grief.
Is a bit pricy though I must say
wonder what make is that under black heatshrink ?
