Also new are the MaxxCurrent XT60 device and battery connectors which have 3.5mm pins and are made from high-temp Nylon and gold plated solid bullet connectors, both included in the injection mold at the time the connector is formed and are the ideal power connector for high current applications. Continuing with connectors the Super Bullet solid gold connectors are an absolute must for high current / high voltage applications. With lower resistance than a typical Dean’s style ultra plug and traditional spring-type bullet connectors, they are the new standard for brushless motor applications. Finally come these LiPo male and female balance connector leads that are used primarily to make adapter cords to mate batteries to chargers or balance boards. These balance connectors are equipped with XH (ProTek/E-flite/Align) or TP (Thunder Power) connector ends and use 24AWG wire in lengths varying from 10cm to 30cm.

Team Orion Supercharge XX 8.4V NiMh pack

Team Orion have introduced the Supercharge XX, the company’s latest battery for Traxxas E-Revo VXL and 1/16 Slash VXL cars. Thanks to an additional cell it has 8.4V instead of the standard 7.2V, resulting in more power, better acceleration and more fun. But how do you manage to put one more cell into a battery compartment if the cells are just too big. If you are Team Orion you just build a new, custom made, cell. Thanks to a downsized cell, which has never been sold before, they were able to build a 8.4V NiMh battery pack which fits into the battery compartment of the Traxxas 1/16 cars.
