This is the ProTek R/C "Supreme Power" 4S - 14.8V, 4700mAh, 100C Lithium Polymer hard case battery pack. With increased capacities and cell chemistry that delivers improved reliability, ProTek R/C 100C LiPo batteries are guaranteed to satisfy. Whether you are a racer looking for maximum power, or a basher looking for extended run time, these 100C packs provide the power and run time that enthusiasts demand. Plus they are backed by ProTek R/C, so you can buy with confidence knowing that we have your back.

This ProTek R/C battery pack is designed to be used with 1/8 scale e-buggy applications when you are trying to reduce running weight! The battery is designed specifically for those 1/8th scale electric racers who don't mind sacrificing a little run time for the increased performance of a lighter car. This battery is 191 grams lighter than the ProTek 6700mAh 4S battery, making this is an awesome option if you are trying to put your 1/8 e-buggy on a diet, and will still give you the 100C punch your looking for.

This battery is ROAR approved and built using a hard plastic case that is required for use at sanctioned tracks and events. The wires are left open ended so you can add the connector of your choice. A 5-pin XH connector provides compatibility with one of the most common varieties of balance connection.  

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 9.4A!

IMPORTANT:
1) DO NOT leave the battery in your model when charging
2) DO NOT leave unattended when charging
3) ALWAYS balance charge the battery
4) ALWAYS use a LiPo charging bag
5) YOU MUST use a Li-Poly specific charger to charge the pack (NiMH or NiCD only chargers WILL NOT WORK!)
6) YOU MUST not over discharge the Li-Poly battery pack
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.
