Steve-O2021 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 HRB 3S Lipo - 11.1V 7000mah 55C Battery for 1/10 1/8 Scale RC Car Model Slash Buggy Rustler Bandit Stampede E-Maxx RC Airplane Helicopter Boat https://amzn.eu/d/hFdYke4 42.99 but tick the 40% discount box and it takes it to £25.79 delivered I ignored the single amazon review and risked it I Slow charged it for its first charge and it hit the stated 7000mah on its first charge 🙂 (The image shows 6900 but I actually put 150mah into it before cancelling and checking I set it to balance mode) So far so good 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 HRB are spot on in my experience, shame theyre not any 4S ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bajadre Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Great price that two of them for 6s would give great runtime on a 1/8th !! 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnie Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Cheers for the link. Ordered a pair of 2s. Some have a extra 10% off so you get 50% off in total off your order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyP Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Little update. Got round to soldering my preferred connectors to the two LiPo's I bought. Put them on the charger to check cell voltage.... Both where around the same. 2.2v a cell. Put them on a quick NiMh charge to bring the voltage up so I could actually balance charge them. Both recovered fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Be interesting to see ,omg term if any damage has been done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-O2021 Posted February 12, 2023 Author Share Posted February 12, 2023 I think mine came shipped at 2.5v per cell but charged fine and no issues so far excellent runtime 🙂 I'm wondering if they do it to stop people complaining about the packs not being the stated rating eg when I charged the pack from the shipped voltage of 2.5v per cell it gave the full stated mah rating?

Most likely some damage has been done to the cells dropping that low. I'll update once I get a few cycles through them. 6 hours ago, Steve-O2021 said: I think mine came shipped at 2.5v per cell but charged fine and no issues so far excellent runtime 🙂 I'm wondering if they do it to stop people complaining about the packs not being the stated rating eg when I charged the pack from the shipped voltage of 2.5v per cell it gave the full stated mah rating? Strange if that is why. Once a cell drops below 3v some science happens and the result is possibility of lost capacity, cycle life, cells not recovering. Fire. Didn't even get to really run the first cycle through them, my ESC keeps cutting out so handed it over to my son to drain for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
