I have a puck and it’s really comfortable in the hand, the wheel has a good roll distance both ways, I opted for the nub on the wheel it’s a nice touch. Nothing bad to say about it.

If I had to guess I would say that a 3 hour ride would use 2 bars of battery on the maytech, that’s out of 5

“best” is a pretty strong word that’s hard to define. Maybe loosen the criteria a tiny bit.
First question I would ask, is, assuming you fixed that, is there a design flaw that’s going to cause that same failure mode to happen again, but somewhere else?

Asking the real questions here
so I’m looking to buy some lipos and was wondering about these
will 2 of these be good? they are 6s2p so I’ll have a 12s2p if wired in series. Or should I go for a higher C rating?
I’m running 2 190 6374s with 15t and 72t with 200mm wheels and I’m about 210lbs
12C is no good for esk8
Look for like 40C - 60C or more

Definitely need more than 12C. Or many more in parallel. Or both.

Is it not? At 16Ah isn’t that 192A continuous?

damn, I kinda suspected that but was hoping for different answers 
Yes, according to science.
But you forgot about the “marketing department exaggeration factor because higher numbers sell more shit” conversion rate
I’d probably guess around seven to one, -ish

The more they lie, the more they sell.
The ones without the lies, get discontinued or go out of business.
Then each successive newer model has to lie more in order to sell well, propagating the cycle.
There are no Mooch test results for lipo packs.

any recommendations for some high capacity, higher C rating packs?
IDK, from what I’ve heard Turnigy figures have typically been fairly accurate. It’s pretty difficult finding batteries higher than 25C at that capacity. Even if you only get half of the 24C burst rating that’s still well over the rating for the XT90 connectors themselves.

There are but they are old and not useful for esk8.
If the community buys two of each of the packs they want tested and sends them over, they’ll get tested.

My Focbox has a 3.5 mm female bullet connector, and my motor has a 5.5mm female bullet connector. While size difference isn’t a problem, how can I connect the two together (bc female-female)? Based on some googling, I can’t find any male-to-male bullet connector, so any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.
I personally would use an Amass MR60 connector and desolder those other connectors.
But there are many ways to accomplish this.

what specifically would you be "desolder"ing?
just trying to visualize it but kinda struggling
all the bullets, then solder on the MR60, u can solder them either way u like, but normally the esc side are female MR60
