Please be honest - I do not want to spend a ton of money on something that will not last. I have chosen one vendor so I can combine shipping, however suggestions for other vendors are more than welcome. I appreciate your time checking all the links - thanks a ton!

It’s all good stuff , but you can find these Venom LIPO’s for ½ the price if you don’t need the universal plug deal ( which is kind a cool ) .
I have bunch of these Venom’s , the 2100 versions , which are basically the same ,
but I got them without plugs since I use mostly Dean’s plugs .
It all depends if you want to buy more when just one …
There are a few sellers on ebay which sell these regularly for around $10,- $12,- .

As for the cut-off , as stated before , the Novak’s are good ,
but incase you use the LIPO’s together with a Tamiya MF unit not necessarily required ,
since the Tamiya MF units ( for trucks as well the ones for the tanks ) shut down before you reach the critical low-voltage point of the 2S Lipo’s .
I only have voltage monitors installed , like from Maxpro , on most of my MF vehicles
