PTK-5188, ProTek RC LiFe Futaba Transmitter Battery Pack (6.6V/2100mAh) (3PV/4PK/4PM/4PLS/4PX/4PV/7PX/7PXR/10PX/16SZ)
This is the ProTek R/C LiFe Car Transmitter Battery Pack, and is intended for use with the Futaba 3PV, 4PK, 4PM, 4PV, 4PLS, 4PX, 7PX, 10PX, 16SZ, and 18SZ Transmitters. Lithium battery technology is evolving. With cell dimensions that fit anywhere a standard Li-Po battery will and rapidly increasing capacity, LiFe chemistry will soon set the standard that all others are judged by. With the ability to deliver 1000+ usable cycles, and a life span up to 4 times longer than Li-Poly batteries (when cycled under the same discharge conditions), these batteries offer the user an excellent balance of performance and value. LiFe batteries are more durable than Li-Poly and are able to handle a higher level of abuse when compared to Li-Poly without the risk of pre-mature failure. Unlike Li-Poly, LiFe cells can be stored in a fully charged state with little to no loss in stored power, and can be discharged deeper with less risk of damage to the cells. Most importantly, LiFe batteries are SAFE! There is no risk of combustion! LiFe cells will not catch fire or explode when over charged, or after a deep discharge.
What about the voltage?
A 2 Cell LiFe battery produces 6.6 volts nominal, which is almost a full volt less than a 2 Cell LiPo battery. The LiFe battery is not meant to replace the performance of a Li-Po battery, it is simply another option. LiFe offers the user a battery with a good discharge curve that is better than that of a NiMH battery, but without the risk of damage or fire that exists when a LiPo battery is abused.
NOTE: Brand new LiFePO4 batteries have been found to fail prematurely if they are deep discharged below below 33% capacity too early. A break-in period of 20 cycles is currently recommended. While testing has shown that this battery can be charged at up to 3C rates, it is recommended that this battery not be charged at rates higher than 1C to maximize the lifespan of the battery. Additionally, LiFe batteries should not be discharged below 2.5V per cell to avoid pre-mature failure and maximize battery life span.
We also recommend you REMOVE the batteries from your cars or radios when you are done, or at least unplug them to avoid accidental over discharge if the unit is left on.
Features:
Safe chemistry will not explode or catch fire
More mAh per gram compared to NiMH cells, meaning lighter models, and longer runtime
Virtually no "self discharge", so the battery is always ready to go even weeks after charging.
Superior voltage performance under load compared to NiMH cells, with consistent torque and speed.
Fast charge time

SPMXPSA200, Spektrum RC Smart G2 Powerstage Air Bundle w/3S Smart LiPo Battery (2200mAh)
This Spektrum RC Smart G2 PowerStage Air Bundle is a one box solution that includes one 3s LiPo 2200mAh battery, and charger to suite many aircraft requirements that need 3s LiPo power.
Spektrum Smart G2 Battery
You'll never have to set charge preferences for a Spektrum Smart battery until you want to. When a Spektrum Smart LiPo battery is connected to a Spektrum Smart charger, unique parameters and health of that Smart LiPo battery are upload from the Smart memory microchip integrated into the battery. Through the charger, you can view and set preferences, such as charge rates, so that all you have to do to charge the pack every time is press the charger "Start" button. Smart technology takes care of the rest. The updated G2 performance batteries feature an all in one connector that eliminates the need for a balance connector, as the balance process is done through the charger and the battery connector. The smart batteries also come programmed from the factory to self discharge to a safe 3.90V per cell after 72hrs of inactivity. All of the functions and features placed in this battery are intended to supply the user with a powerful and safe lithium battery.
Spektrum Smart G2 S120 USB Charger
The Spektrum S120 USB-C Smart Charger features Spektrum Smart Charging technology in a small and simple to use platform. This 20W charger easily charges compatible Spektrum Smart batteries conveniently from almost any USB power source. When a Spektrum Smart battery is connected, the S120 immediately detects the battery information and automatically begins to charge. Spektrum Smart charging is designed to be safe, intuitive and convenient so you can simply look forward to putting your batteries back to action!
