If you dont want to spend a bomb, HK Lipos makes sense. But be carefully with them, need care. I use a 4S hard case lipo. You can go for 2 nos 2S.

Go for the highest mah you can afford. It doesnt hurt to have a higher capacity. But charge times will be higher. Voltage is what you need to sure about. Erevo supports upto 6S ie 2 nos of 3S.

Nothing over 2s on the firestorm, slash.

The ERBE will be happy on 4s. Try the nanotechs. Try to go for a higher C rating. The ratings aren't exactly as advertised but they help to choose batteries by the same manufacturer.

Be advised. The nanotechs are infamous for losing their capacity after about 50 to 100 cycles. Last I heard, the issues were solved but just thought I'd let you know.

@bimalved

Hello, We would be stocking the lipos in few days(a week or so). Chargers are updated on our site. Please register with us. That way we would update ypu as soon as the fresh stock arrives. We would be getting the hard lipo up to 8000mah.
