Team Orion has released the Platinum 2 Edition 5000mAh 7.4V LiPo pack, the latest in their already extensive line-up. This is the next evolution of the pack started it all—the first hard-cased LiPo battery in the hobby industry for R/C cars. The Platinum 2 Edition 5000 is based on a the original Platinum which has often been imitated but never duplicated. The updated Platinum 2 Edition provides “next-level” LiPo performance, weighs less than a conventional battery pack, and adheres to the most rigorous safety standards.
The 20C cells are once more made by Kokam, and they have been mounted in a rugged impact-resistant protective case, while for further protection the pack has an integrated fuse that protects it in the event of any problems that may occur. The Platinum 2 Edition is capable of 500+ cycles—it’s simply the standard against which all others are measured.
The Team Orion Platinum 2 features a balancer connection and is supplied with two 4mm gold connectors and a Tamiya plug mounted cable.
Team Orion's SLPB Li-Po battery packs features more capacity and lower
internal resistance than standard Ni-MH batteries of the same capacity.
Kokam® SLPB cells are used exclusively to ensure the highest level of
safety and quality in the industry.
Why go Li-Po?
- Up to 30% longer runtime than traditional NiMH/NiCd (of the same capacity)
- Up to 40% lighter weight than traditional NiMH/NiCd (of the same capacity)
- Precision cell fusion technology virtually eliminates internal resistance
- Li-Po power delivery ensures maximum power throughout the discharge cycle
- Can be used and recharged unlimited times per session
- Less energy is lost to heat equals greater power output
- Fits 90% of 1/10 scale chassis with little or no modification
- Battery can be charged days, even weeks, ahead of time
- No complicated maintenance or conditioning required
- Cost is far less over time due to a lifespan that is up to 10 times that of NiMH/NiCd
- Kokam manufactured ensures the most reliable and safest Li-Po on the market
- Perfect for tracks lookng for an equal playing field
- Sealed case and stable voltage makes cells easy to tech
- Balancing port included for those that feel the need
Dimensions: Length: 137.5mm Width: 47mm Height: 23mm
Note:
These batteries must be charged ONLY with a charger designed to charge
Lithium Polymer batteries which can apply the "Constant
Current/Constant Voltage" (CC/CV) charge technique. |
