Key Features
- USB-C Power Supply — The charger is powered by a conventional USB-C power supply, which means you can use any standard USB-C power adapter to charge your batteries. This gives you incredible flexibility, allowing you to charge at home using a mains adapter, in your car using a car charger, or even from a portable power bank when you're out and about enjoying your RC car at your favourite UK track or bashing spot.
- Traxxas iD Battery Recognition — The charger automatically recognises Traxxas iD LiPo batteries and optimises all charging parameters without any user input. This intelligent recognition system ensures that every battery is charged with precision, eliminating human error and protecting your valuable battery investment from damage caused by incorrect charging profiles.
- Automatic Charger Optimisation — As soon as you plug in a compatible iD battery, the charger instantly optimises its settings for that specific battery's characteristics. This means faster, safer charging with zero guesswork involved, making it ideal for RC enthusiasts who want reliable performance without the technical complexity.
- LED Progress Indicator — The integrated LED progress indicator keeps you informed of the charging status at a glance. You can see immediately whether your battery is charging, fully charged, or experiencing any issues, making it easy to manage your charging schedule when you have multiple batteries for your RC car or truck.
- 2s LiPo Specialisation — This charger is specifically engineered for 2-cell LiPo batteries, which makes it the perfect choice for mini-scale RC vehicles and compact brushless RC setups that have gained tremendous popularity in the UK RC hobby. The dedicated design ensures optimal charging curves for 2s configurations.
- Compact and Portable Design — Unlike traditional AC mains chargers that are bulky and station-bound, the USB-C design creates an incredibly compact form factor. You can easily throw it in your RC car bag or backpack, making it the ideal charger for track days, RC clubs, or casual bashing sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is Traxxas iD technology and why should I care about it? — Traxxas iD technology is a proprietary battery identification and optimisation system that automatically recognises compatible batteries and configures charging settings accordingly. This innovation eliminates the most common mistakes RC enthusiasts make when charging LiPo batteries, such as selecting the wrong charge rate, overcharging, or charging at unsafe voltages. For UK RC hobbyists, this means safer, faster, and more reliable charging every single time, regardless of your experience level.
- Is the Traxxas USB-C 2s LiPo Charger suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. This charger is specifically designed for beginners and experienced RC enthusiasts alike. The automatic iD recognition system removes all technical complexity from the charging process. Unlike traditional chargers that require you to manually select battery type, cell count, capacity, and charge rate, this charger does everything automatically. Simply plug in your iD battery, and the LED indicator shows you the charging progress. There's no chance of making damaging mistakes, making it one of the safest charging solutions for new RC car owners in the UK.
- What USB-C power supply do I need to use this charger? — Any standard USB-C power supply will work with this charger. You can use a conventional USB-C phone charger, a USB-C car charger, or Traxxas's own dedicated USB-C power solutions. Traxxas offers a 100 Watt USB-C Power Cable and an AC Power Adapter USB-C (45w) specifically designed for UK use, both available through RC Model Shop. The charger is compatible with any USB-C power source between the specifications required for safe operation.
- Which RC vehicles are compatible with this charger? — The Traxxas USB-C 2s LiPo Charger is compatible with any Traxxas model equipped with a 2-cell LiPo battery and the iD connector system. This includes the entire Mini Maxx BL-2S range (available in green, blue, black, and orange), the Mini Rally VXL Ford RS200 collection, and the Mini XRT VXL-3S in various colours. The charger's intelligent iD system automatically recognises each battery, so you can use it across multiple vehicles without manual configuration.
- Can this charger work with non-Traxxas batteries? — No, this charger is specifically designed for Traxxas iD batteries only. The automatic recognition and optimisation features rely on the iD connector system, which is proprietary to Traxxas. This specialisation ensures safety and reliability, as the charger can only be used with batteries it has been tested and approved for. If you have non-iD batteries, you would need a different charger.
- How long does it take to charge a 2s LiPo battery? — Charge time depends on your specific battery's capacity and your USB-C power supply's wattage. The charger automatically optimises the charge rate for your battery, so larger capacity batteries will take longer than smaller packs. The LED indicator keeps you informed throughout the process, showing you when charging is complete.
- Is the charger waterproof or weather resistant? — The charger is designed as a portable USB-C charging device and is intended for indoor use or protected outdoor environments. It is not rated as waterproof and should not be exposed to rain, water, or extreme weather conditions. Store it in a dry location and use it in controlled environments.
- What's the difference between this USB-C charger and Traxxas's other charging solutions? — The key difference is portability and power source flexibility. Traditional Traxxas chargers typically require mains AC power and are designed to stay in one location. This USB-C charger runs on any USB-C power supply, making it incredibly portable. You can charge at home, in the car, or at the track. The iD system is the same across Traxxas chargers, providing automatic battery recognition, but the USB-C design makes this version uniquely convenient for UK RC enthusiasts who want to charge on the move.
