    This is my personal anecdote from my experience with APACS. Their own rackets are top notch, while their clones play differently from the originals. That being said, I am mostly a singles player, though I do play doubles very often because places I play at don't have too many courts.

    If you are aiming for an APACS racket, I would recommend the Lethal 70 for doubles. It is extremely fast, very slightly head heavy, and very very powerful. The Tantrum 300 essentially plays as a lighter, less stiffer version of the Lethal 70. This usually means easier to produce power, albeit in a less raw form. Anyhow, you should take a look at both rackets. Either will present an excellent choice for doubles.

    i agree on what he said although i think the lethal series are more suitable for singles play

    in Msia, most probably you can get L60 and Tantrum 200
    L70 is for america, europe and singapore market
    if you want fast swim, get the 4u version of Tantrum should do it
    lethal 4u is quite rare in Msia though

    well a seller that i contacted said that L70 is actually available in Msia
    just that he can't start selling..yet
    some orders from taiwan factory of something

    price wise..should be more expensive than L60

    Being Edgesaber10 , Apacs visible hollow 1800 , AMP 90 user before (since 2007) , but switch to Gosen 6900 since end of 2009 until now , but too bad gosen 6900 is out of production , so can't get spare one , so would like to looking for Apacs OWN modal (not the clone one)

    so would like find something tat 84~86g , 290 BP.....is that Tantrum 200 fixed my needed??

    isn't that 4u?
    3u is less than 90g if im not mistaken..no?

    if you want 290BP..it would be lethal series
    tantrum is 285 +- 5

    basically i think t200 and t300 is the same
    i'm not too sure but the case might be similar with L60 and L70
    they're made for different regions hence the different model
    if there are differences, it would be very minor

    T200:
    Frame Material : 30T HM Graphite + Nano (Japan Mitsubishi M30)
    Shaft Material : 40T HM Graphite + Nano (Japan Toray M40)
    Flex :Stiff
    Weight : 4U (81-86g) G2
    Length : 675mm
    Max Tension : 30lbs
    Balance : 288 ± 3mm

    T300:

    • Frame Material : 30T HM Graphite + Nano (Japan Mitsubishi M30)
    • Shaft Material : 40T HM Graphite + Nano (Japan Toray M40)
    • Flex :Stiff
    • Weight : 3U (86-89g) G2
    • Length : 675mm
    • Max Tension : 35lbs
    • Balance : 285 ± 5mm

    apacs low end raacket usually not on SPEC, so when u see 4U and its balance all are not so accurate, i tried its weight, about 3U range and it is medium stiff only, not really stiff
