Key Features

• 6800mAh High Capacity — The generous 6800mAh capacity delivers extended run-time, allowing you to spend more time behind the transmitter and less time charging. This is particularly valuable for competitive RC car users who want to maximise their track time during race meetings or practice sessions.
• 140C Continuous Discharge Rate — An exceptionally high 140C discharge rate provides the electrical current your motor and ESC demand during aggressive acceleration and high-speed running. This ensures consistent power delivery and prevents voltage sag that could slow down your RC car or cause performance inconsistencies.
• 2S1P HV Configuration — The 2S1P (two cells in series, one in parallel) configuration with HV (High Voltage) chemistry delivers 7.6V nominal voltage, providing excellent power for modern brushless RC car systems whilst maintaining compatibility with most ESCs and motors designed for 2S lipos.
• Hardcase Protection — The robust hardcase shell protects your battery from impacts, crushing, and damage during transportation and storage. This is essential for maintaining battery integrity and safety, particularly if you regularly transport your RC car to tracks, events, or outdoor bashing locations.
• Factory-Installed 5.0mm Bullet Connector — The pre-soldered 5.0mm bullet connector minimises connection resistance and voltage loss, ensuring maximum power transfer from the battery to your ESC. Factory installation also saves time and eliminates the need for soldering, getting you on the track faster.
• Redline 2.0 Series Engineering — As part of Gens Ace's premium Redline 2.0 range, this battery benefits from advanced cell selection and quality control, ensuring consistent performance, reliability, and longevity across multiple charge cycles.
• Dependable Gens Ace Brand — Consumers trust the Gens Ace name to deliver the quality, performance, and reliability they expect. This battery is backed by Gens Ace's reputation for producing batteries that perform consistently and last through countless charging cycles.

Technical Performance

The Gens Ace 6800mAh 140C 2S HV LiPo battery is engineered to deliver exceptional performance in demanding RC car applications. With a 140C continuous discharge rate, this battery can safely deliver up to 952 amps of continuous current (6.8Ah × 140C), making it suitable for high-performance brushless motor systems ranging from 4000KV to 8000KV and beyond. The 7.6V nominal voltage (two cells in series) is the standard for modern 2S LiPo systems in competitive RC car racing, circuit racing, and off-road bashers. The hardcase construction uses rigid plastic casing that protects the internal cell arrangement and connector from physical damage, which is critical for maintaining battery safety and performance integrity. The 5.0mm bullet connector is a standard connector size for RC car batteries, offering secure connections with minimal voltage drop during high-current discharge cycles. Weighing 278 grams with dimensions of 139mm length, 47mm width, and 22mm height, this battery fits within the battery compartments of most modern 2S-compatible RC cars, including 1/10-scale buggies, truggies, and short-course trucks. The cell composition and internal resistance are optimised for high-discharge applications, meaning this battery maintains voltage stability even under the most demanding electrical loads, preventing the throttle dip or performance loss that can occur with lower-quality batteries.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the Gens Ace 6800mAh 140C battery suitable for competitive RC car racing? — Yes, absolutely. The 140C discharge rate and 6800mAh capacity make this battery ideal for competitive RC car applications, including circuit racing, off-road racing, and track days. The high discharge rate ensures consistent power delivery during intense racing scenarios, whilst the generous capacity provides extended run-time for multiple heats or long practice sessions.
• What RC cars is this 2S HV LiPo battery compatible with? — This 2S 7.6V battery is compatible with any RC car system designed to accept 2S LiPo batteries, including 1/10-scale buggies, truggies, short-course trucks, and stadium trucks. Ensure your ESC is rated for 2S LiPo (typically marked as 2S compatible) and your motor is suitable for 7.6V systems. Always check your vehicle's documentation to confirm compatibility before use.
• What is the difference between this Redline 2.0 and other Gens Ace batteries? — The Redline 2.0 Series represents Gens Ace's premium offering, featuring advanced cell technology, stricter quality control, and optimised internal resistance for high-discharge applications. Compared to the G-Tech or Bashing series, the Redline 2.0 delivers superior performance consistency, better voltage stability under load, and enhanced longevity across multiple charge cycles.
• How long does this battery take to charge? — Charge time depends on your charger's output current and charging specifications. Using a dedicated LiPo charger at 1C rate (6.8A), you can expect approximately 1 hour of charge time. Higher-output chargers may reduce this time, but always follow the manufacturer's charging guidelines to ensure safety and battery longevity.
• What does the 140C rating mean? — The 140C rating indicates the maximum continuous discharge rate, expressed as a multiple of the battery's capacity. With a 6800mAh capacity, a 140C rating means the battery can safely discharge up to 952 amps continuously. This extremely high discharge rate ensures stable voltage and consistent power during aggressive acceleration and high-speed running.
• Is this battery safe for beginners? — LiPo batteries require proper handling, charging, and storage procedures. Whilst this battery is not inherently unsafe, beginners should familiarise themselves with LiPo safety protocols, including using a proper LiPo charger, avoiding over-discharge, and storing the battery in a safe location. If you're new to LiPo batteries, consider reading the manufacturer's safety guidelines or consulting with experienced RC enthusiasts at your local track or hobby shop.
• Will this battery fit my RC car's battery compartment? — With dimensions of 139mm length, 47mm width, and 22mm height, this battery is designed to fit standard 2S battery compartments in most modern 1/10-scale RC cars. However, some compact vehicles or custom builds may have space constraints. Measure your vehicle's battery bay or consult your vehicle's documentation to ensure compatibility before purchasing.
