  • Come on Opti get it sorted

    Having decided to make Opti power my battery of choice, i'm getting a little p1ssed off that the larger ones are always out of stock, 6s 5000mah, 6s 4300mah & 6s 3500mah.
    Surely they can supply the amount needed, i'm even thinking of changing to TP batteries.

        I've noticed that! Every time i tried to buy 6s5000 they were out of stock everywhere! I ended up using a different brand that im very happy with!

          The last batch came in about 3 weeks ago, and as far as I'm aware they always have a batch "en route". I'll find out when the next lot are due.

            Tried skyline models?

            They were the only ones in stock of 6s 2700 at the time and seem to have some 6s 5000 and 3500 in stock right now. Excellent service from Bob too

              Andy posted on Facebook last night that another large batch was on order, they are clearly that good that demand continues to outstrip supply, i know he is doing his best to keep on top of the supply chain.

                I've just had a very detailed reply from Andy

                One order arrived yesterday, but this is mainly the smaller cells. The next order is due to ship on the 10th of April, and is shipping by air with a 3 day transit time, so cells should be available within a week of them shipping as long as there are no unseen deals in customs. This order contains all of the big cells There are another 2 orders already placed, one for the 27th of April and another on the 20th of May. After this, he says there should be orders shipping every 2-3 weeks, so there should never be much of a delay

                Andy has apologised to those waiting, but unfortunately for us, demand has way outstripped supply, but he has put extra orders in to try and help the situation! Hold tight, the packs should be available pretty soon

                        Sorry guys but demand is stunning from UK and the rest of Europe rather caught us out I have to say. We have scheduled deliveries every two to three weeks. Next big order is booked to leave on 10th as Jamie notes in his mail and these are mainly lerger cells. MHS has some stock I think but I can only appologise for the delays its just the very high demand, I guess this is good news overall.

                            The only reason there aren't any is because you bough them all. How could you possibly need more batteries! Lol! :-)
