The ProTek R/C 3S 130C Low IR Silicon Graphene + HV Shorty LiPo Battery was developed specifically for 1/10 scale rock crawler and rock racer applications. 3S packs that are commonly used in the crawler world are either small, low capacity packs - or large, heavy 4000-5000mAh packs. This 4800mAh battery fills the void and gives scalers a high capacity option that produces more voltage and longer runtimes than a 2200mAh. Plus, when charged at LiHV specs this battery produces 13.05V, instead of the standard 12.6V of a fully charged standard LiPo, meaning performance oriented enthusiasts can take advantage of the light weight, and higher voltage throughout the discharge curve to give them a more consistent power delivery with less fade on the course!

Want more reasons to run this pack? When compared to standard LiPo and LiHV, Silicon Graphene cells deliver improved efficiency, lower operating temperatures, lower internal resistance, better run time, increased cycle life and increased voltage - but Graphene + 130C LiPo batteries take that a step further with lower internal resistance, more power, and 300mAh more capacity when compared to the previous ProTek 3S LiHV! 

Lab testing has shown that ProTek R/C Silicon Graphene packs have double the cycle life when charged at 1C rates, and can be charged at higher amp rates, with less risk of damage to the pack. More importantly, the discharge curve is flatter, meaning the cells maintain higher voltage throughout the discharge cycle with no significant drop off. Additionally, when compared to conventional LiPo batteries Silicon Graphene batteries are lighter, providing a higher capacity per gram ratio. With 7.6V nominal voltage, 130C discharge ratings, incredibly high charge rates and ten different models to choose from, ProTek R/C 130C Graphene + packs are perfect for enthusiasts that demand the absolute best. 

Features:

  • Comparable weight to a 2200mAh pack, 100g lighter than EcoPower 4100mAh
  • 15 grams heavier than the original LiHV 3600 3S battery, and 900mAh more capacity
  • Great choice for scalers and U4 racers
  • Great choice for pro class 3S drag racing, boats and airplanes too
  • Improved power to weight ratio and a lower overall CG
  • Silicone Graphene can handle more abuse and deliver more current than a standard LiPo battery
  • Improved efficiency, lower operating temperatures, and lower internal resistance!
  • Increased run time, increased cycle life and increased voltage!
  • More capacity gram for gram when compared to standard LiPo cells
  • 10C max charge rates - 1C charge rate recommended for longest life
  • 11.4V nominal voltage
NOTE: While these batteries are technically LiHV cells, they can still be charged with a standard LiPo charger. The overall voltage and capacity will be slightly less than if charged to LiHV specs, but the performance will be better than a standard LiPo thanks to the reduced weight and low internal resistance.

LITHIUM POLYMER SAFETY INFORMATION

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.

ProTek RC 3S 130C Low IR Si-Graphene + HV Shorty LiPo Battery (11.4V/4800mAh)
Okay I think they under stated the mah rating bc I just charged it and it was at 3.73v per cell and my charger put 4055mah into it. I have several high capacity lipo my biggest is 7100 mah and this one lasts 1.5 times longer than that and twice as long as my 6000mah.
Needless to say the best battery I have ever had very highly recommended and the IR on each cell is very close in each one

ProTek RC 3S 130C Low IR Si-Graphene + HV Shorty LiPo Battery (11.4V/4800mAh)
Excellent battery. We use it on our Arrma Typhon 3S to lower the overall weight. Lots of juice, longer than expected run time - about the same as the 5200 Lectron. Takes bashing well. I’m sure there’s a compromise, but we haven’t discovered it yet.

Best upgrade I got my my TRX4 bronco. Lasts forever and fits in the front battery tray to displace more weight up front.

ProTek RC 3S 130C Low IR Si-Graphene + HV Shorty LiPo Battery (11.4V/4800mAh)
I only got 2 charges out of this . The run time was great but if it out charge more than twice it's not worth a darn.

ProTek RC 3S 130C Low IR Si-Graphene + HV Shorty LiPo Battery (11.4V/4800mAh)
Don't store this battery under 30%. After four total charges mine dropped below 10% on its own during a month in storage and would not re-charge again. Going to stick with my Gens Ace and my Spektrum batteries from now on.

ProTek RC 3S 130C Low IR Si-Graphene + HV Shorty LiPo Battery (11.4V/4800mAh)
After first charge there is a .358 gap in cell voltage. Discharged and balanced and still have a huge gap in one cell. Not sure how often this happens but sucks when paying $60 for a battery that will take a poop soon.
