LRP Multi-Plug Hyper packs

LRP have extended their LiPo battery range with these all new power-bars. Instead of increased power, these new packs feature a true innovation, the Multi-Plug-System.

The cells are covered in a hardcase, made of robust synthetic material to avoid damage and improve safety. The bulges at the bottom side make a perfect fit in every car with battery slots also possible. Available in 2600mAh, 3200mAh, 3800mAh and 4600mAh versions.
