ProTek R/C “Supreme Power” LiPo Battery Packs

17 February, 2010
New from ProTek R/C:

1S “Supreme Power” Li-Poly 40C Hard Case Battery Pack (3.7V/5000mAh) (ROAR Approved)

A Main Hobbies today announced a ProTek R/C brand Lithium Polymer 1-cell hard case power battery pack for radio controlled cars, with 5000mAh of capacity and a true 40C constant discharge rate. This battery is ROAR approved and can be used at all racing events and tracks that require approved batteries.

This pack includes a Deans style T-plug installed. 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 pan cars, and can be secure in vehicles designed for side by side 4 cell NiMH race packs.

These ProTek R/C battery packs can be used in any application where you need 4-cell NiMH race packs, such as 1/12th, or 1/10th scale electric pan cars. These packs are significantly lighter when compared to regular NiMH race packs, for lighter overall vehicle weight providing significantly improved acceleration.

The batteries will sell with a street price of $41.99, but don’t be fooled by the low price! These batteries perform as good as or better than the most popular name brand batteries on the market today.

2C Maximum Charge Rate!

This battery pack is designed to be safely charged at 2C, twice the normal 1C charge rate required for most Li-Poly battery packs. With a 2C charge rate, you can get these battery packs fully charged in only slightly more than half the time it will take to complete a 1C charge.

CRASH Protection Guarantee!

This battery pack is covered by the ProTek R/C manufacturer “Crash Protection Guarantee”! If you crash your vehicle badly enough to damage the battery pack, you can send the damaged battery pack back to ProTek R/C and purchase a replacement battery for 50% off the regular sale price!

2S “Supreme Power” Li-Poly 35C Hard Case Battery Pack (7.4V/5000mAh) (ROAR Approved)

A Main Hobbies today announced a ProTek R/C brand Lithium Polymer 2-cell hard case power battery pack for radio controlled cars, with 5000mAh of capacity and a true 35C constant discharge rate. This battery is ROAR approved and can be used at all racing events and tracks that require approved batteries.

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 provides 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, and with the humps on the bottom will be secure in vehicles designed for side by side NiMH race packs.

These ProTek R/C battery packs can be used in any application where you need 6-cell NiMH stick or race packs, such as 1/10th scale electric touring cars or 2wd and 4wd off-road vehicles. These packs are significantly lighter when compared to regular NiMH race packs. This makes the overall vehicle weight lighter for significantly improved acceleration. These batteries also have a nominal voltage of 7.4V compared to the 7.2V of regular NiMH batteries, and have dramatically reduced internal resistance. This leads to increased top speed and improved ‘punch’ off the line when compared to NiMH batteries.

The batteries will sell with a street price of $69.99, but don’t be fooled by the low price! These batteries perform as good as or better than the most popular name brand batteries on the market today.

2S “Supreme Power” Li-Poly 45C Hard Case Saddle Battery (7.4V/5200mAh)

A Main Hobbies today announced a ProTek R/C brand Lithium Polymer 2-cell hard case saddle battery pack for radio controlled cars, with 5200mAh of capacity and a true 45C constant discharge rate. This pack includes bullet connectors for charging, with a Deans style T-plug installed. The balance adapter included is a 3-pin Align/E-Flite style XH balance connector.

This battery is built using the same case that is used in our other ROAR approved batteries, but this specific battery is still awaiting ROAR approval. 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.

For mounting in a saddle pack configuration for cars like the Associated B44, we recommend you mount the battery flat to the chassis and use some kind of velcro or servo tape to secure them to the upper battery strap. This will stop the batteries from sliding out of the car sideways. To mount them flat you may need to remove the plastic battery holder from the chassis. If you have a strap permanently attached to the top of each battery, you can easily remove them from the vehicle for charging and simply put another battery in its place.

The batteries will sell with a street price of $99.99, but don’t be fooled by the low price! These batteries perform as good as or better than the most popular name brand batteries on the market today.
