Why Choose CNHL Lightning Batteries
Many pilots compare CNHL batteries with other brands in real-world tests. A detailed comparison can be found in the following review:
What is a LiHV battery? LiHV batteries support higher charging voltage compared with standard LiPo batteries, improving throttle response and overall performance.
Is a 7200mAh battery good for longer runtime? Yes. Higher capacity can provide longer runtime while maintaining stable voltage during demanding flying or driving sessions.
Is XT90 suitable for high current RC systems? Yes. XT90 connectors are widely used in powerful RC setups because they can safely handle high current loads.
What charger should be used for LiHV batteries? A LiHV-compatible balance charger capable of charging up to 4.35V per cell should be used.
Notice
Ensure voltage and connector compatibility before use.
Do not charge above 4.35V per cell.
Inspect battery condition before first use.
If the battery does not hold charge initially, cycle it several times using a balance charger.

They arrived in a timely manner and so far so good
They arrived in a timely manner and so far so good. All cells were nicely at storage charge. I have not used them yet but I always have great results with CNHL lipos compared to other brands. These ae a go to brand.

Large EDF, shocking results
Used two 6s HV 7200 mAh batteries in my large jet Phoenix BAE Hawk, converted from turbine to EDF. 110 fan and 700kv motor. Total weight 9.5 kg. Tons of power, incredible vertical climb, and 6 minutes of flight time!
Also, those batteries are super light for what they are. I hope CHNL always keeps stock and adds the 8000 mAh

Fantastic battery
Fantastic battery get about an extra minute of flight time compared to my other standard Lopo batteries. I highly recommend the high voltage packs.

performance is promising
So far pack performance is promising and deserving of 5 stars. Unlike the 7S 7200 packs, actual weight of the pack is within a few grams of the estimated weight.
I fly Scale models in International events. I currently fly a 2.5m span Tucano and a 2.3m Ki-43 Oscar both are using CNHL 12S 9500 packs.
I pared 2 x 7200/6S Li-Hv packs in the Oscar. Loads of power. smaller packs and saved 120grams in weight. Only just enough to complete a 7 min completion flight. I am going to try 7800/ 6S x 2 (12S) to get maybe another 30 second flight time.
Just a word about your standard battery tester. It will indicate a higher capacity as they are mostly set for Li-Po's. You can get a tester that will test Li-Hv as well. Thats what you will need to test the capacity left in your packs.
I have requested 9000 mah 6S Li-hv to test, but not made as yet.

These batteries are top notch. I will not use another brand of batteries for my racing program moving forward.

Brutaler Punch & Top-Speed – Der Akku verwandelt das Auto in eine Waffe!
ch habe den CNHL Lightning LiHV 8500mAh 6S heute das erste Mal in meinem Team Corally Kagama gefahren. Mein Truggy ist durch etliche ADU-Tuningteile extrem massiv und schwer 7,6kg – aber was dieser Akku damit anstellt, ist schlicht unbegreiflich.
Punch: "Hits like a train!" Die 120C Entladerate liefert ohne spürbaren Spannungsabfall sofort volles Drehmoment. Selbst mein schwerer Panzer schießt nach vorne wie eine Rakete.
Top-Speed: Durch die LiHV-Spannung (22,8V) merkt man sofort den spürbaren Zuwachs an Endgeschwindigkeit im Vergleich zu Standard-LiPos.
Laufzeit: Die 8500 mAh sorgen für gefühlt endlosen Fahrspaß, ohne dass die Leistung gegen Ende einbricht.
Wer maximale Performance und kompromisslose Kraft sucht, kommt an den CNHL Lightning Teilen nicht vorbei. Absolute Kaufempfehlung!
