I was please to find these batteries with the balancing wire separate (on the other side) from the discharge wires. The last time I bought batteries from here they were on the same side and the balancing wires solder gave up after a few months. I think this is a superior design. I think the price is very reasonable given this design. I just took them to the field today and they perform very well! I am buying more right now! VH thanks for coming out with other sizes of this battery as well!
