Reedy LiPo battery weight set updated

After making some updates, the Reedy LiPo battery weight set is back in stock. These weights have been modified (now 22g and 36g) with the value laser etched onto each piece along with the world-famous Reedy Powered logo. These weights can be used together or separately under your low-profile shorty LiPo battery to add ballast and/or lower the vehicle’s CG for improved handling. Each set is precision cut from brass and contains one .5mm (22g) weight and one 1mm (36g) weight, which can be used together or separately.

Reedy Zappers Hi-Voltage Modified Shorty LiPo

Reedy’s new high voltage Shorty Zappers are here. Perfect for use in modified classes, a 7.6 nominal voltage means that with a suitable charger, the battery can be safely charged to 8.7V (4.35V/cell) and its no secret that more voltage equals more power, so there is no easier way to achieve a performance advantage than a higher charge voltage. A 70C rating reduces initial punch for modified class racers while still producing a flatter discharge curve to close the power gap between the beginning and end of a race. Available in 5400mAh and 5800mAh versions, a high quality, durable hard case helps prevent damage while heavy-duty 5mm socket connectors keeps power-robbing resistance to a minimum. A charge lead and 5mm ESC connectors are included.

Reedy Zappers LiHV & LiPo shorty battery packs

Reedy have announced the release of their new Zappers high-performance LiHV and LiPo battery packs. At 7.6V the LiHV pack offers a higher voltage than the standard 7.4V pack, meaning increased performance during bashing or when racing “outlaw” classes. The battery can be safely charged to 8.7V and even when the typical 8.4V charging limit is enforced, the battery still offers a significant advantage thanks to a flatter discharge curve, which results in more voltage deeper into the race. Available as 4800mAh 7.6V LiHV and also as 4400mAh 7.4V standard LiPo pack, both make use of 5mm bullet-type connectors with the standard voltage pack built to meet ROAR, EFRA, BRCA and IFMAR specifications.
