Battery Prices

[Rift]

I was curious how come the 65mm batteries aren't slightly cheaper then the 75mm batteries? Seems strange to me that both would be priced the same, when you get less battery with one of the options for the same price as the higher capacity battery.

plain and simple the factory charges us the same price..I would think its more about labor and parts... then size.

That's interesting cause I can't imagine anything else is different in there then a slightly smaller LiPo battery, and slightly smaller tube.

right all i know is they charge us the same price

They could go the "smaller is better" route and charge a lot more for shorter batteries.

Shrink any tech and it tends to cost more.

But in this case its just the battery which will have just a few cells removed nothing to special. I don't mind I was just curious that they were both the same price. I would think the factory would charge a little less cause there putting a little less into the battery.

Maybe when the 'other guys' charge less for a smaller battery than for the standard one, they are just padding the cost a little more on the larger ones. Everyone expects to pay a $1 more for a bigger one than the smaller one, and a $1 more than that for an XL.
