CNHL Racing Series LiHV 4900mAh 7.6V 2S 120C HV Shorty Hard Case Lipo Battery with EC3 Plug

Quick Fit Check

The CNHL Racing Series LiHV 4900mAh 7.6V 2S 120C Shorty Hardcase LiPo Battery with EC3 Plug is a compact racing battery for 1/10 buggies, touring cars, drift chassis and other shorty-compatible 2S platforms where battery weight and placement matter.

At approximately 96 × 46 × 25mm (L × W × H) and 183g, this pack offers 4900mAh capacity in a relatively light shorty format. Before ordering, confirm battery tray size, EC3 connector compatibility and whether the ESC supports the selected LiHV charge voltage.

Product Specifications

Battery dimensions may vary by approximately 1–5mm, and weight tolerance is approximately ±5g.

4900mAh Shorty Power at Only 183g

The main strength of this battery is its balance of 4900mAh capacity, 96mm shorty dimensions and approximately 183g weight. It provides useful energy reserve without moving into the heavier range of many larger-capacity shorty packs.

That makes it especially relevant to race chassis where battery position and total mass influence rotation, rear traction and overall handling response.

Why Choose This Battery?

• 96mm shorty format: Designed for compact racing battery trays.
• Approx. 183g: Keeps installed battery mass relatively low.
• 4900mAh capacity: Useful balance between energy reserve and battery weight.
• 120C continuous rating: Designed for demanding 2S brushless racing systems.
• Hardcase protection: Suitable for off-road, touring and drift chassis.
• EC3 connector: Compact main-power connection physically compatible with IC3.
• LiHV chemistry: Supports up to 8.70V full charge when the ESC is rated for it.

4900mAh 2S Shorty Battery for Team Associated RC10B7.1 & RC10B7.1D

The CNHL Racing Series 4900mAh 2S LiHV Shorty is a strong battery option for compatible Team Associated RC10B7.1 and RC10B7.1D setups. Its 96mm shorty format and 183g weight suit racers who use battery position as part of chassis-balance and handling setup.

Confirm the battery hold-down, EC3 connection and selected LiHV voltage before racing. Compare more options in the Team Associated RC10B7.1 & RC10B7.1D Battery Collection.

Compact 2S Shorty Battery for Team Associated RC10 6x6

The 4900mAh shorty format is also relevant to the Team Associated RC10 Custom Race Car 6x6, where compact battery dimensions and manageable weight suit the transverse shorty-style battery layout.

Because the RC10 6x6 is a kit and electronics depend on the final build, confirm ESC voltage support and connector choice before use. See more options in the Team Associated RC10 6x6 Battery Collection.

2S Shorty Battery for Touring and Drift Cars

The combination of 96mm length, 25mm height and approximately 183g weight also makes this pack relevant to compatible 1/10 touring and drift chassis where shorty battery placement is used to tune weight distribution.

EC3 and IC3 Connector Compatibility

EC3 and IC3 are physically compatible for the main positive and negative power connection. This battery can therefore provide normal main power through a corresponding IC3 device-side connector when polarity and orientation are correct.

This CNHL battery does not include Spektrum Smart battery electronics or Smart data communication.

LiHV Charging and Maximum Voltage

This is a 2S LiHV battery. A full LiHV charge reaches 4.35V per cell, or 8.70V total.

A standard 2S LiPo reaches 4.20V per cell, or 8.40V total. Do not assume that every ESC described as 2S-compatible supports the higher 8.70V LiHV maximum.

If full LiHV compatibility has not been confirmed, this battery can be balance charged to the standard LiPo limit of 8.40V / 4.20V per cell.

For routine charging, a balanced 1C rate is preferred. 5C is the stated maximum, not the everyday target.

FAQ

Is this battery suitable for the Team Associated RC10B7.1?

It is a strong shorty option when the chassis setup accommodates its 96 × 46 × 25mm dimensions and the electronics support the selected LiHV voltage.

Is this suitable for the RC10 6x6?

It is a relevant compact shorty option for compatible RC10 6x6 builds. Because the vehicle is supplied as a kit, confirm your chosen ESC, battery mounting and connector configuration.

Is EC3 compatible with IC3?

Yes. EC3 and IC3 are physically compatible for the main power connection. This battery does not provide Spektrum Smart battery data.

Can I charge this battery only to 8.40V?

Yes. A LiHV battery can be balance charged to the standard 2S LiPo limit of 8.40V when full 8.70V LiHV voltage is not required or has not been confirmed for the electronics.

Why choose 4900mAh instead of a larger shorty battery?

A 4900mAh pack can reduce installed battery mass compared with some larger-capacity options, while still providing useful energy for racing. The better choice depends on track conditions, chassis balance and runtime requirements.

Does 120C mean the car always draws extremely high current?

No. 120C is the battery's stated continuous discharge rating. Actual current depends on the motor, ESC, gearing, traction, vehicle weight and track conditions.

Should this battery always be charged at 5C?

No. For routine charging, a balanced 1C rate is preferred. 5C is the stated maximum, not the everyday target.

Notice

• This is a 2S LiHV battery with a maximum charge voltage of 4.35V per cell.
• If full LiHV support has not been confirmed, charge only to the standard 8.40V / 4.20V-per-cell LiPo limit.
• Confirm the 96 × 46 × 25mm dimensions, approximately 183g weight and EC3 connector before use.
• EC3 and IC3 are physically compatible for main power, but this battery does not provide Smart battery data.
• Voltage and connector alone do not establish compatibility; tray dimensions, battery retention, weight distribution and electronics requirements must also match.
• Secure the battery firmly and keep power and balance leads clear of gears, driveshafts and suspension parts.
• Never charge unattended, and do not use a swollen, punctured, damaged or overheated battery.
• Allow the battery to cool before recharging and use storage mode when it will not be used for an extended period.

CNHL LiPo batteries come with a 90-day warranty from the date of purchase, unless otherwise stated in the product listing.

This warranty covers original defects in materials and workmanship. It does not cover normal wear and tear, puffing, swelling, over-disacharge, over-charge, improper storage, crash or water damage, connector changes, or any damage resulting from misuse or mishandling.

If you find that a battery purchased from us is defective within the 90-day warranty period, please get in touch with us to arrange a return for inspection. Based on our evaluation, we will usually repair, replace, or offer an appropriate solution at no additional charge.
