Robitronic have released a range of high performance LiPo stick packs. Available in 3000mAh/20C, 3000mAh/25C, 4100mAh/25C and 3600mAh/50C, their protective hard case with rounded corners means it can easily fit into places that were designed for NiMh packs. Supplied with Tamiya connector and EH balancer.
The Dynamite LiPo cell voltage checker provides enthusiasts with an easy method of checking the voltage of an entire LiPo pack or individual LiPo cell. The unit checks the voltage of packs up to 6S and connects to the battery using the battery balance lead. Measuring the voltage of LiPo battery packs can help identify performance problems with each pack and in turn help prevent problems associated with voltage decreases.

The all-new Thunder Power RC TP820CD is their first ever dual port and the most anticipated, most powerful and most advanced multi-chemistry charger, discharger, cycler and balancer system. With up to 800 watts of total charging power, nearly 4-times that of their popular TP1010C, the TP820CD is equipped with two ports that function completely independently to charge, discharge and cycle a wide variety of 1-8S LiPo, LiIon and LiFe (A123) batteries, as well as 1-24 cell NiCd and NiMH along with 6-30V Pb (lead-acid) batteries. The built-in 2-8S LiPo/LiIon/LiFe (A123) cell balancers, one for each port, and included balance connector adapter boards are readily compatible with all Thunder Power balance connectors and the JST-XH balance connectors found on many other batteries. Additional features include built-in data logging and viewing on the large class-leading and easy-to-read 48-character blue backlit LCD screen, internal resistance measurement and an advanced Storage Mode function to automatically charge or discharge LiPo/ LiIon/LiFe (A123) batteries as needed.

Calandra Racing Concepts has been very busy in the lab brewing up some powerful LiPo packs for 2011. All the batteries are specially built to their high standards of performance and durability. They mold their own cases, layup the lithium polymer chemical and assemble the cells to produce race winning packs that out perform all others, on the track and on the test machines. Unlike the many sticker manufactures that simply re-label some off the shelf LiPo cell, they make performance batteries, not just decals. The new line-up includes a 6300mAh 50C 3.7V 1S pack, a 5600mAh 65C 3.7V 1S pack, a 5600mAh 65C 7.4V 2S pack and finally a low price 6100mAh 55C pack which is pre wired with deans connector. All packs are ROAR approved.
