Key Features
- 2S Cell Configuration (7.4V Nominal) — The two-cell LiPo arrangement provides 7.4V nominal output, which is the perfect voltage sweet spot for a wide range of electric RC models including small cars, buggies, drones and crawlers, offering excellent power-to-weight ratio and runtime characteristics.
- 1350mAh Capacity — This mid-range capacity delivers sufficient energy for extended runtime whilst maintaining a compact physical size, making it ideal for RC models where battery space is limited or weight is a critical factor in performance and handling.
- 30C Discharge Rating — The 30C continuous discharge rate means the battery can safely deliver 40.5 amps of current (30C × 1.35Ah), providing plenty of power for responsive acceleration and sustained high-performance driving without thermal stress or safety concerns.
- XT60 Connector — The XT60 is one of the most widely adopted connectors in RC hobby, ensuring seamless compatibility with the majority of modern RC ESCs, receivers, and charging equipment available in the UK market and worldwide.
- Soft Case Protection — The flexible soft case design protects the lithium polymer cells from physical damage during storage and transport, whilst the compact construction allows the battery to fit snugly into tight battery compartments without modification.
- Compact Dimensions (72 × 36 × 15mm) — These precisely engineered dimensions make the battery exceptionally space-efficient, allowing installation into RC models with limited battery bay room, ideal for scale models and compact chassis designs.
- Ultra-Lightweight at 79 Grams — Weighing just 79 grams, this battery adds minimal mass to your RC model, preserving acceleration, manoeuvrability and overall performance whilst maintaining the power output needed for thrilling driving experiences.
Technical Performance
The Radient LiPo 2S 1350mAh 7.4V 30C battery represents a carefully engineered balance between capacity, discharge capability and physical dimensions. The 30C discharge rating is derived from industry-standard calculations: multiplying the 1350mAh capacity (1.35 amp-hours) by the 30C multiplier yields a maximum continuous discharge of approximately 40.5 amps, which is sufficient for sustained high-performance driving in brushless RC cars, lightweight crawlers, and responsive electric buggies. The soft case construction utilises flexible polymer materials that protect the individual lithium polymer cells whilst remaining supple enough to compress slightly when necessary during installation, ensuring no sharp edges can damage delicate vehicle internals. The 2S configuration (two cells in series) produces the nominal 7.4V output that defines the 2S LiPo standard across the RC hobby; this voltage is substantially higher than older nickel-metal hydride battery technology, delivering improved power density and performance to any compatible electric RC model. The XT60 connector features a gold-plated contact design that minimises resistance and voltage drop during discharge, ensuring clean power delivery and maximum efficiency. With proper care including regular charging cycles, storage at appropriate voltages, and temperature management, this battery provides consistent, reliable performance across hundreds of charge cycles, making it an economical choice for serious hobbyists in the UK and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC models are compatible with the Radient 2S 1350mAh 7.4V battery? — This battery is suitable for any electric RC model that accepts a 2S LiPo battery with 7.4V nominal voltage, features an XT60 connector, and has a battery compartment with space for a pack measuring 72 × 36 × 15mm. Common applications include RC cars, buggies, crawlers, small RC helicopters, drones and similar electric-powered models. Always verify your specific RC model's documentation to confirm compatibility before purchase.
- Is the Radient 2S 1350mAh battery suitable for beginners? — Yes, this battery is an excellent choice for RC beginners and experienced hobbyists alike. The age recommendation of 14+ reflects safe handling practices for lithium polymer batteries. Beginners should always charge the battery using a quality LiPo charger, never leave charging unattended, and store the battery in a cool, safe location. The compact size and moderate capacity make it forgiving for learning purposes whilst delivering genuine performance.
- How long will this battery run my RC car? — Runtime depends entirely on your specific RC model's motor type, ESC settings, driving style and terrain. As a general guide, the 1350mAh capacity provides approximately 10-20 minutes of runtime under typical driving conditions in a small to medium RC car, though this may vary significantly based on load and usage patterns. For extended play sessions, purchasing multiple batteries is recommended.
- What charger do I need for the Radient 2S LiPo battery? — You will need a dedicated LiPo charger that supports 2S batteries with XT60 connectors. Many modern RC chargers include balance charging functionality, which is highly recommended for maintaining cell health and extending battery lifespan. Never attempt to charge LiPo batteries with standard nickel-metal hydride chargers, as this can cause damage or safety hazards.
- How does the 30C discharge rating affect performance? — The 30C rating indicates the maximum safe continuous current the battery can deliver without thermal damage. With a 1350mAh capacity, this translates to approximately 40.5 amps maximum, which is more than sufficient for brushless RC cars, crawlers and similar models. This rating ensures the battery can handle demanding driving scenarios without overheating or failing.
- What is the difference between 2S, 3S and 4S LiPo batteries? — The number refers to cell count: 2S has two cells providing 7.4V, 3S has three cells providing 11.1V, and 4S has four cells providing 14.8V nominal voltage. Higher cell counts deliver greater power but also higher weight and larger physical size. The 2S configuration in this Radient battery is ideal for compact, lightweight RC models requiring moderate power output.
- Can I use this battery with my RC car charger? — Only if your charger specifically supports 2S LiPo batteries with XT60 connectors. Check your charger's manual or specifications before attempting to charge this battery. Using an incompatible charger can damage the battery, charger or create safety hazards. When in doubt, consult the charger manufacturer or visit RC Model Shop for expert advice.
