Hi all, 

I'm in the rather scary position of having lost a couple of my Lipo batteries.  I think I've checked all my gnus to make sure they're not plugged in, but damned if i can find 'em.   Anyway, upshot is that i need a couple of 7.4v and maybe a little 11.1v too, around 1400-1600 mah capacity, 25-40C, and with T / Deans connectors. 

I used to go to HobbyKing for the excellent NanoTech Turnigy batteries.  They do have some in stock, but only with Tamiya connectors.  I can't be arsed to buy extra connectors and do some soldering, is there anywhere in the UK that does good prices for what I'm looking for?

 
Another vote for component shop. I've used them for years and are usually my first stop when looking for anything battery related

Likewise.  I think they were the first company that I bought batteries from online.

I have had one duff battery from them; they sent a replacement the same day I reported it to them and did not ask for the duff one to be returned.

 
Bloody hell, this place is only about 5 miles away. What a piece of luck... Spoke to the guy on the phone and I will pop there with my MP5 in a couple of days to get a couple of batteries. Bargain.

I know it shouldn't need to be said but remember to keep the pew well under wraps while in public.
