This is the ProTek R/C 2S, 50C 5100mAh Lithium Polymer saddle battery pack with a hard case - the perfect saddle pack battery for 1/10th scale vehicles! This pack includes a charge/balance lead with 4mm bullet connectors for a low resistance connection to the battery. Additionally, the Deans style T-plug provides a convenient connection capable of handling extremely high amp rates, and a 3-pin Align/E-Flite style XH connector for compatibility with one of the most common varieties of balance tap connection.

These battery packs are built using a hard plastic pack that is required for use at ROAR sanctioned tracks and events. The packs are thin enough to fit into all touring cars and off-road vehicles that would normally accept a saddle pack battery, and is easily secured in vehicles designed for saddle pack NiMH race packs.

Note: Some vehicles may require some re-balancing if the light weight of these batteries cause some handling changes. To get the vehicle to balance correctly, add some weight to the battery side of the vehicle.

Unlike most other Lithium Polymer batteries, these batteries can be charged at up to 2 times the rated current, or 2C! If your charger is capable, you can charge these batteries at up 10A!

CRASH Protection Guarantee!
ProTek RC offers a 50% Damage Replacement program for one (1) year after original purchase date on all batteries that have been damaged due to impact, over-discharging, or improper charging that have not been modified or disassembled. The damaged battery will be replaced by a comparable battery at 50% off of its retail cost.

IMPORTANT:

2) You must not over discharge the Li-Poly battery pack.
3) Read the instructions carefully before operating this battery.

NOTE: When using high energy Li-Polymer Batteries, please do not over-discharge or over-charge batteries as this will result in over heated batteries. Discharging capacity can't exceed 80% of the max capacity of the pack after full charging to ensure a good cycle performance. It is recommended to fully charge a brand new battery before using and only discharge the battery 50% for first 5 cycles. Always monitor race time and/or set a low voltage warning on ESC (End voltage cannot be lower than 3.2v per cell) Do not use the battery that has too low a voltage.

Do not expose batteries to sunshine or store/charge batteries at the temperature above 35°C or in a closed car. The high temperature environment could cause damage to the pack or make it burst. If the battery becomes hot while fast charging, high current discharging or racing, do not charge the battery until it has cooled completely. Wait about 20 mins, then inspect prior to recharging.

Ordered three sets for my SC10 4x4 FT and they work as expected. The price is impossible to beat. Out of the six, I have experienced no bloating or expanding.

The first set arrived already swelled up. Returned for warranty and received a replacement set which also were swelled. The cells now rock back and forth on a flat surface, however performance was good. The casing hasn;t split however if you intend on racing with these be careful of the height as the swelling may cause them to be too high for sanctioned event rules. Because of this I had to buy new cells, different brand.
