This is the ProTek R/C "Supreme Power" 2S "Shorty" 4300mAh, 100C Lithium Polymer hard case battery pack. This "Shorty" style battery pack is a great option to reduce weight and tune weight distribution. This battery is designed to be used in 2wd electric off-road cars and trucks, such as the Team Losi Racing 22 family of vehicles, but can also be used with other 1/10 vehicle types.
These battery packs are built using a hard plastic case 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, and are easily secured in vehicles designed for side by side NiMH race packs.
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 8.6A!

7) READ & UNDERSTAND 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.

Battery swelled after several uses in 2wd buggy. Sent it back for warranty, received new battery, swelled again after several uses. Maybe a bad batch? experienced racer,ran batteries for 6 minute races, never over discharged, always charged properly. Have seen and heard of protek batteries having a tendency to swell, so Im done with that brand of lipos.

Awesome batteries. They have tons of power and still last over 15 minutes in my 2WD mod buggy. Make sure you break the battery in by running it for 3-5 minutes, then fully charge it, and run it again for another 3-5 minutes. If you do this a few times, the battery will last longer and perform better.
