Technical Performance

The GENSACE G-Tech 5000mAh 3S battery represents the pinnacle of lithium polymer technology for RC car applications in the UK market. With a nominal voltage of 11.1V and maximum voltage of 12.6V when fully charged, this pack delivers the electrical specification required by modern brushless ESCs and high-torque servo systems commonly found in vehicles like the Traxxas Slash VXL, Slash 4x4 VXL, E-Maxx Brushless, E-Revo Brushless, Spartan, and 1/8 SLEDGE models. The 60C continuous discharge rating means this 5000mAh capacity battery can safely deliver 300 amps of current (5000mAh × 60C = 300A), providing the sustained power necessary for hard acceleration, aggressive cornering, and demanding bashfield conditions without thermal stress or performance degradation.

Weighing 359 grams and measuring 153mm in length, 44mm in width, and 25mm in height, this pack achieves an exceptional energy density through advanced manufacturing techniques that stack multiple cell layers to achieve full 5000mAh capacity within a compact footprint. The soft-case construction combined with durable materials from Japan and Korea ensures reliable protection against impact and handling damage during transport between RC events and bashfield sessions. The low internal resistance (IR) characteristic of Gens Ace batteries provides stable voltage delivery throughout your entire mission, maintaining peak power until the battery reaches its safe discharge threshold. This engineering excellence ensures consistent performance lap after lap, run after run, without the voltage sag and power drop commonly experienced with inferior battery alternatives. The battery's engineered discharge curve delivers reliable power for acceleration, speed maintenance, and aggressive driving without compromising longevity or cycle life.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the GENSACE G-Tech 5000mAh 3S battery suitable for my Traxxas Slash VXL or E-Revo Brushless? — Yes, absolutely. The manufacturer specifically lists this battery as suited for Traxxas Slash VXL, Slash 4x4 VXL, E-Maxx Brushless, E-Revo Brushless, Spartan, and SLEDGE models. The 11.1V 3S specification and XT60 connector are directly compatible with these vehicles' electronic speed control systems, providing the 60C power output these demanding models require.
• What is the difference between the 60C rating and the 50C true rate mentioned? — The manufacturer specifies a 60C discharge rating, which means this 5000mAh battery can safely deliver 300 amps continuously. The 60C burst capability ensures strong acceleration and consistent performance during aggressive driving conditions, making it ideal for racing and bashfield use where peak power delivery is essential.
• Can I charge this battery with my existing LiPo charger? — Yes, the GENSACE G-Tech battery offers universal compatibility with any standard LiPo charger. When charged with a G-Tech Eco Smart Charger, the integrated ID chip enables automatic configuration and plug-and-play charging. With general LiPo chargers, you simply configure the charger manually for 3S lithium polymer chemistry, just as you would with any traditional LiPo battery pack.
• What makes the G-Tech balance connector different from standard JST connectors? — The G-Tech universal balance connector retains the standard JST-XHR-4P male format whilst adding an intelligent identification pin that communicates battery data to compatible chargers. This built-in ID chip stores essential information about battery chemistry, specifications, and recommended charging parameters, enabling automatic detection and error prevention that standard JST connectors cannot provide.
• How long does this battery take to charge? — Charge time depends on your charger's output capacity and selected charge rate. Most standard LiPo chargers can safely charge this 5000mAh pack at 1C rate (5000mA or 5 amps) in approximately one hour, or faster at higher rates if your charger supports it. G-Tech Eco Smart Chargers automatically optimise charging parameters through the built-in ID chip for faster, safer charging without manual configuration.
• What is the weight and will it fit in my RC car? — The GENSACE G-Tech 5000mAh pack weighs 359 grams and measures 153mm length × 44mm width × 25mm height. These dimensions make it compatible with most modern RC cars, including the Traxxas models listed in the manufacturer's compatibility guide. Always verify your specific vehicle's battery tray dimensions to ensure proper fit before purchasing.
• How many charge cycles can I expect from this battery? — Gens Ace batteries are engineered for hundreds of charge cycles with proper care and charging practices. Avoid discharging below 3.0V per cell (9.0V for 3S) and store at partial charge in a cool location when not in use. The use of a G-Tech smart charger with automatic parameter detection helps maximise cycle life by preventing overcharging and maintaining optimal charging conditions.
• Is this battery waterproof for water-based RC vehicles? — This is a standard soft-case LiPo battery designed primarily for RC cars and trucks. Whilst the pack itself is not specifically waterproofed, the soft case provides reasonable protection during normal use. For RC boats or vehicles that experience water contact, ensure the battery is housed in a waterproof battery box or enclosure, and always dry the exterior thoroughly after water exposure.
• What is the difference between this XT60 version and other connector types? — The XT60 connector is a high-quality, low-resistance power connector that minimises voltage drop during discharge, ensuring maximum power reaches your electronic speed control and motor system. XT60 connectors are the current industry standard for high-performance RC vehicles due to their secure locking mechanism and excellent current-carrying capability. This XT60 version ensures direct compatibility with modern Traxxas brushless models and most contemporary RC cars.
• Can I use two of these batteries in parallel for longer runtime? — Technically yes, though parallel battery connections require matched pack voltages and internal resistance characteristics. For the best results and safest operation, we recommend using a single fully-charged battery for each driving session, or purchasing a second identical pack to alternate between whilst one charges. This approach eliminates any risk of imbalanced discharge and maximises overall battery lifespan.
