Amped Up RC 2s Balance Charge Leads

Following Donathen RC’s launch of its Amped Up RC range of off the shelve cables, they have released the first 3 products, 2s Balance Charge Leads.  These leads are designed by DRC using DRC proportions, DRC connectors, 10 awg wire, and adhesive heat shrink.  Each lead is fully protected with black sheathing covering all wires, increasing the protection, and lifespan of the lead.  This sheathing can easily slide around with regular heat shrink, that is why we offer these leads with dual wall adhesive heat shrink. Not only does the adhesive heat shrink keep the sheathing in place, it adds durability, sturdiness, and molds to the connection providing the best protection available.  To start, Amped Up RC is offering 3 balance leads, 5mm bullet connectors, Xt90 connectors, and Qs8 connectors 24″ long made with 10 awg wire.  A unique feature of these leads is that they can be used with any charger that uses a JST-Xh balance housing.
