Quick Fit Check
The [Combo] 2 Packs CNHL Racing Series 8000mAh 7.4V 2S 120C Hard Case LiPo Battery with T/Dean Plug is designed for RC drivers who want longer runtime, strong 2S punch, and durable hard case protection in a high-capacity RC car battery setup. This listing includes two 8000mAh 2S hard case packs, making it a practical choice for drivers who want one battery running while the other is ready to charge, or for multi-pack race and bashing sessions.
This pack is best suited for 1/10 RC cars, short course trucks, stadium trucks, crawlers, and high-demand 2S platforms that can physically fit a 139 × 47 × 25mm hard case battery. Before buying, please confirm your vehicle supports 7.4V 2S LiPo power, has enough tray space, and uses a T/Dean connector or a properly rated adapter.

Core Description
The CNHL Racing Series 8000mAh 2S 120C hard case LiPo battery is built for drivers who want more runtime from a 2S RC car battery without giving up punch. The 8000mAh capacity gives this pack a clear advantage over smaller 4000mAh, 5000mAh, or 6000mAh 2S packs when the goal is longer bashing sessions, fewer battery swaps, and more consistent power across a full run.
The 120C discharge rating makes this battery especially useful for heavier 1/10 RC cars, short course trucks, stadium trucks, and high-grip setups where throttle response can feel soft with lower-output packs. In practical driving, this kind of battery is not just about peak numbers. It is about keeping the truck responsive when accelerating out of corners, landing and getting back on throttle, or pushing through grass, dirt, and loose terrain.
The hard case design also makes sense for RC car use. Compared with soft-case packs, a hard case battery offers better external protection inside battery trays, especially in surface vehicles that see vibration, chassis movement, impacts, and frequent battery changes.
Why Choose an 8000mAh 2S Hard Case LiPo?
A high-capacity 8000mAh 2S LiPo battery is a good direction when runtime is the main problem you are trying to solve. Smaller packs can make a vehicle feel lighter, but they also shorten drive time. This 8000mAh pack is better for drivers who want longer sessions in one battery run and do not mind the extra battery mass.
For many 1/10 RC car owners, 2S remains the most practical everyday voltage. It is easier to control than 3S, easier on drivetrain parts, and often more suitable for beginners, backyard bashing, crawling, and short course driving. A strong 2S 120C hard case pack helps make that familiar 7.4V setup feel more consistent and more usable.
The T/Dean plug is a familiar connector style across many older and current RC car setups. If your vehicle uses XT60, EC3, IC3, EC5, IC5, or another connector family, you will need the correct properly rated adapter or connector change before use.
Compatible RC Car Applications
This CNHL Racing Series 8000mAh 7.4V 2S 120C hard case LiPo battery is suitable for many 1/10 scale RC cars and trucks that support 2S LiPo power and can fit its full-size hard case dimensions. Common use cases include short course trucks, stadium trucks, 2WD and 4WD bashers, crawlers, and larger 1/10 platforms where long runtime is more important than keeping the chassis as light as possible.
Typical model references include vehicles such as the Traxxas Slash, Team Associated B5M, Losi TEN-SCTE, ARRMA VORTEKS MEGA 550 2WD Stadium Truck, and Axial SCX10, as long as voltage, tray size, connector type, and battery retention are suitable. Fitment should always be checked on the actual vehicle because tray height, wire exit, strap clearance, and body clearance can vary between versions.
For newer 2S-capable short course trucks such as the CEN Reeper SC, this battery can be considered only after checking the battery compartment carefully. The Reeper SC responds very well to 2S power, but its compact battery tray means pack length, width, height, wire exit, and strap clearance need to be confirmed before installing a high-capacity 8000mAh hard case battery.
You can also browse our dedicated CEN Reeper SC batteries collection for more fitment-focused 2S LiPo options selected around that platform.

What to Check Before Buying
-
Voltage: Your vehicle must support 7.4V 2S LiPo power.
-
Tray size: Confirm the battery tray can fit 139 × 47 × 25mm per pack.
-
Connector: This battery uses a T/Dean plug from 5.0mm bullet leads.
-
Wire clearance: Check whether the wire exit has enough room under the body or battery strap.
-
Weight: At approximately 333.5g per pack, this is a high-capacity battery and may feel heavier than smaller 2S packs.
-
Charging: Use a compatible 2S LiPo balance charger with JST-XH balance support.
Typical Applications
- 1/10 short course trucks
- 1/10 stadium trucks
- 2S RC bashers
- RC crawlers and trail trucks
- Long-runtime 2S RC car setups
- Selected 1/10 racing and practice builds
- High-capacity Deans plug RC car battery setups
FAQ
Is this listing for one battery or two batteries?
This is a two-pack combo listing. The dimensions and weight shown in the specifications table are for each individual battery pack.
What is this 8000mAh 2S LiPo battery best used for?
It is best used in 1/10 RC cars, short course trucks, crawlers, bashers, and other 2S platforms that need longer runtime and can fit a full-size hard case pack.
Can this battery work in the CEN Reeper SC?
It may be considered for the CEN Reeper SC only if the battery tray, strap clearance, wire exit, and connector setup are confirmed. For safer fitment selection, check the dedicated CEN Reeper SC batteries collection linked above.
Is T/Dean the same as XT60, EC3, or IC3?
No. T/Dean, XT60, EC3, and IC3 are different connector formats. EC3 and IC3 are often discussed together in RC battery searches, but this specific battery comes with a T/Dean plug. Use the correct connector or a properly rated adapter for your vehicle.
Will 8000mAh give more runtime than a 5000mAh 2S battery?
In most similar driving conditions, yes. A higher-capacity 8000mAh battery usually provides longer runtime than a 5000mAh pack, but actual drive time still depends on vehicle weight, gearing, terrain, throttle use, motor, ESC, and tire setup.
Does 120C mean this battery will make the car faster?
Not directly. The C rating mainly affects current delivery and voltage stability under load. Speed depends more on the motor, ESC, gearing, voltage, tires, and drivetrain efficiency.

Notice
- Only use a compatible LiPo balance charger designed for 2S LiPo batteries.
- Stop charging immediately if any cell exceeds 4.2V.
- Check voltage, connector type, battery tray size, wire clearance, and strap fit before purchase.
- Inspect the battery surface, connector, wires, bullet leads, and cell voltage before first use.
- Do not use the battery if it becomes swollen, damaged, overheated, or physically deformed.
- For long-term storage, store the battery at proper storage voltage in a cool and dry place.
- If a new battery does not initially hold a full charge or loses charge quickly, several normal balanced charge and discharge cycles may help stabilize the cells.
- Always follow standard LiPo safety procedures during charging, storage, transport, and use.
