I know this sounds daft but after the switch on the battery packed up on mine it now holds a great charge???
I have to psychically unplug it to turn it on Or off?
Iv had 7 hours use out of one charge and it still going strong.

In my experience, the chinese sellers have been unreliable both in delivery times and quality of product.
I've been buying 12v lipos from here for about a year now and not had any problems.

Delivery is typically 24-48 hours, the stated capacity is genuine and there are no switches to faff around with.
The price is higher than those coming from China, but I think it's worth it to get a reliable product from a UK supplier.
