Product Overview
CNHL Lightning LiHV 2400mAh 11.4V 3S 120C Shorty LiPo Battery with XT60 Plug is designed for drivers and pilots who want strong power delivery in a compact shorty battery format. With LiHV chemistry and a 120C discharge capability, the pack is built to deliver fast throttle response and stable voltage under demanding conditions.
The shorty layout helps maintain a balanced chassis setup, especially on vehicles where weight distribution and center of gravity matter. Compared with larger rectangular packs, the compact design allows more flexible battery positioning while still providing the current needed for aggressive acceleration.
Because this is a LiHV battery, it charges to a higher maximum voltage than a standard LiPo pack. Many users choose LiHV batteries when they want a more energetic feel during acceleration and a stronger top-end response during early runtime.
Typical Applications
- 1/10 scale rally cars
- Compact touring cars
- Small off-road RC vehicles
- Lightweight sport airplanes using 3S power
- Vehicles requiring a shorty LiPo battery layout

Before ordering, always confirm the voltage requirement, connector type, battery tray size, and acceptable battery weight for your model.
FAQ
What is a shorty LiPo battery?
A shorty LiPo battery is a compact battery format commonly used in racing vehicles and performance RC cars. Its shorter length allows flexible placement and improved chassis balance.
Why choose LiHV instead of a standard LiPo?
LiHV batteries charge to a higher voltage, which can provide stronger acceleration and a more responsive feel compared with standard LiPo packs.
Can I use this battery in any 3S vehicle?
Only if the voltage, connector, and battery tray dimensions match your vehicle. Always confirm fitment before installation.
Notice
- For RC batteries, correct fit requires both matching voltage and connector type.
- Please stop charging immediately when the cell voltage reaches 4.35V per cell.
- Inspect the battery before first use to ensure the surface and voltage are normal.
- If a new battery does not hold a full charge initially, cycle it several times with a balance charger.
