Overview

The Gens Ace Redline 2.0 Series 2S HV 7.6V 5000mAh 140C hardcase LiPo battery is a premium power solution designed for serious RC car racers and competitive drivers in the UK. This high-performance battery pack delivers the dependable, consistent power output that 1/10 scale RC racing platforms demand, making it an excellent choice for drivers who value reliability and punch in competitive environments. Built by Gens Ace, a brand trusted worldwide for delivering high-quality LiPo batteries, this pack combines advanced manufacturing techniques with strict quality control to ensure you get maximum performance from every charge.

Whether you're piloting an XRay, TLR, Team Associated, Schumacher, Serpent, Kyosho, or Infinity 1/10 racing platform, this battery has been engineered specifically to meet the demands of modern RC car racing. The hardcase construction protects your investment during transport and storage, whilst the factory-installed 5.0mm bullet connector provides immediate compatibility with most racing setups. For UK-based RC enthusiasts looking for a race-ready battery that won't let them down on the track, the Gens Ace Redline 2.0 represents outstanding value and proven performance credentials.

The 5000mAh capacity combined with the 140C discharge rate ensures you have both the runtime needed for extended driving sessions and the high-current delivery capability required for aggressive acceleration and cornering. This balance makes the battery suitable for everything from casual weekend bashers to serious competitors preparing for club races and championships across the UK.

Key Features

• Stable Automatic Stacking Technology — Gens Ace employs proprietary stable automatic stacking technology that enables single-cell capacities of 5000mAh, ensuring consistent energy delivery throughout the entire discharge cycle and preventing the voltage sag that can compromise performance in critical racing moments.
• Strict Single-Cell Matching Process — Every cell in this battery undergoes the most rigorous capacity, voltage, resistance, and discharge curve matching process available, guaranteeing that both cells perform identically and delivering perfectly balanced power output with absolutely no internal imbalances that could reduce overall performance or lifespan.
• High-Capacity, High-Discharge Design — With 5000mAh capacity and a 140C continuous discharge rate, this battery delivers strong, consistent power to your motor whilst maintaining sufficient runtime for complete race heats or extended practice sessions without requiring mid-session battery swaps.
• Hardcase Protection — Unlike soft-sided battery bags, the rigid hardcase construction protects your battery from impact damage during transport to the track, storage in your kit bag, and the inevitable bumps and collisions that occur during active RC racing.
• Factory-Installed 5.0mm Bullet Connector — The battery arrives ready to use with a standard 5.0mm bullet connector already fitted, providing immediate compatibility with the vast majority of 1/10 racing ESCs and chargers used across the UK RC racing community.
• Low Internal Resistance (Low IR) — The advanced cell chemistry and construction minimise internal resistance, which means this battery provides stable voltage output right until the end of your driving session, ensuring consistent handling and power delivery from the first lap to the last.
• ISO9001 and ISO14001 Certified Manufacturing — Gens Ace and its manufacturing partners maintain strict compliance with international quality management and environmental standards, guaranteeing that every battery meets exacting safety and performance specifications.

Technical Performance

This Gens Ace Redline 2.0 battery represents cutting-edge LiPo technology optimised specifically for high-performance RC car racing applications. The 2S (two-cell) HV (high-voltage) configuration delivers 7.6V nominal voltage, which is compatible with modern racing ESCs and provides the voltage headroom that serious racers demand for competitive driving. The 140C discharge rate is genuinely impressive and places this battery in the upper echelon of performance LiPos — at full discharge capacity, this translates to 700 amps of maximum current availability (5000mAh × 140C), providing the explosive acceleration that separates winners from the field. The battery weighs approximately 173g according to manufacturer specifications, though packaged weight may reach 224g including the protective hardcase, making it light enough for 1/10 racing whilst heavy enough to contribute meaningfully to vehicle balance and inertia characteristics. Dimensions of 96mm length, 46mm width, and 19mm height (core battery) allow this pack to fit into standard battery compartments found on most 1/10 racing buggies and saloons. The engineering emphasises energy density optimisation — Gens Ace has specifically adapted this battery's performance characteristics to deliver very high energy density relative to weight, which means you get maximum power and runtime from the lightest possible package. The stable simultaneous discharge technology means both cells drain at identical rates, preventing the mid-race voltage imbalances that can cause handling inconsistencies and reduce overall performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the Gens Ace Redline 2.0 5000mAh 140C battery suitable for competitive 1/10 RC racing in the UK? — Yes, absolutely. This battery has been specifically engineered for 1/10 racing platforms from the major manufacturers including XRay, TLR, Team Associated, Schumacher, Serpent, Kyosho, and Infinity. The 140C discharge rate and 5000mAh capacity make it ideal for competitive racing where both power delivery and runtime are critical performance factors.
• What is the voltage of this battery and is it compatible with my RC car? — This is a 2S HV (high-voltage) battery delivering 7.6V nominal voltage. It is compatible with any RC car ESC designed to accept 2S LiPo batteries, which includes the vast majority of modern 1/10 racing setups. Always check your specific ESC's voltage compatibility specifications before purchasing.
• How much does this battery weigh and will it affect my RC car's balance? — The battery weighs approximately 173g (core battery weight), which is standard for a 5000mAh 2S pack. This weight is consistent with factory-installed batteries in most 1/10 racing vehicles and will not significantly impact vehicle balance when placed in the designed battery compartment.
• What makes the Gens Ace Redline 2.0 different from other 2S 5000mAh racing batteries? — The key differentiators are the strict single-cell matching process (where both cells are matched for capacity, voltage, resistance, and discharge curve), the stable automatic stacking technology, low internal resistance for maintained voltage throughout your session, and the rigorous quality control that ensures every battery performs consistently. Additionally, the hardcase protection is a significant advantage for track-day durability compared to soft-sided battery bags.
• Is this battery suitable for beginners learning RC car racing? — Whilst this battery is not specifically designed as a beginner product, it is certainly suitable for anyone learning to race if their RC car is equipped with a compatible 2S ESC. However, beginners might consider starting with a standard (non-HV) 2S battery to reduce component stress whilst developing driving skills.
• How long will this battery last during a typical RC racing session? — Runtime depends on your driving style, terrain, and RC car setup, but 5000mAh in a 1/10 racing buggy typically provides 15-25 minutes of continuous driving before requiring a recharge, which aligns perfectly with standard RC racing heat times.
• What connector type does this battery have and is it compatible with my charger? — The Gens Ace Redline 2.0 features a factory-installed 5.0mm bullet connector, which is the standard connector for most RC racing batteries in the UK. This connector is compatible with virtually all modern LiPo chargers, though you may need a separate balance charging adapter depending on your specific charger model.
