Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK competitor or a weekend basher enjoying your brushless RC setup at the local track, having a reliable transmitter battery is essential for maintaining consistent control and range throughout your flying or driving session.

With its small footprint and low mass of just 88 grams, this Radient LiFe transmitter battery installs straightforwardly where a 2S LiFe transmitter battery is required. The compact dimensions of 78 x 37 x 18mm mean it fits neatly into most transmitter housings without adding unnecessary bulk or weight to your radio equipment. This is particularly valuable for RC pilots and drivers who need to maintain portability and comfort during extended sessions at the field or track. The battery's suggested compatibility with both Futaba and Hitec TX systems makes it a versatile choice for operators running either brand of RC radio transmitter.

LiFe chemistry delivers several distinct advantages over traditional NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride) transmitter batteries. These cells offer superior energy density, meaning you get more power and longer runtime from a physically smaller package. The voltage consistency throughout the discharge cycle ensures your radio maintains stable performance from full charge right through to the end of the battery's usable life, which is critical for maintaining accurate control inputs on your ready to run RC equipment.

Key Features

• LiFe Chemistry — This battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate cells, which offer superior performance compared to traditional NiMH technology, delivering better energy density, more consistent voltage output, and longer overall lifespan with proper care and maintenance.
• 2-Cell 6.6V Configuration — The 2-cell design provides the correct voltage for Futaba and Hitec transmitter systems, ensuring your radio operates at optimal performance levels without risk of voltage-related issues or compatibility problems.
• 2300mAh Capacity — This substantial capacity provides extended runtime during your RC sessions, meaning you can spend more time at the track or field before needing to recharge, which is essential for enjoying uninterrupted RC car UK driving or flying time.
• 15C Discharge Rating — The 15C continuous discharge rate provides sufficient power delivery to transmitter electronics, ensuring responsive and stable radio control performance even during intensive use or when operating multiple servos simultaneously.
• Compact Lightweight Design — Weighing just 88 grams with dimensions of 78 x 37 x 18mm, this battery pack adds minimal weight and bulk to your transmitter, improving comfort during extended operation and maintaining optimal radio handling characteristics.
• Futaba and Hitec Compatibility — Specifically designed to work with Futaba and Hitec TX (transmitter) systems, this battery eliminates compatibility concerns and ensures perfect fitment in your existing radio equipment.
• Black Colour Finish — The professional black colour finish provides a clean, finished appearance that matches most modern RC transmitter designs and colour schemes.
• UK Stock Availability — This battery is typically held in stock and usually ships the same day, meaning you can get your transmitter powered up and ready to operate with minimal delay.

Technical Performance

The Radient LiFe 2S 6.6V 2300mAh 15C battery represents excellent engineering for transmitter power applications. The LiFe chemistry chosen for this pack delivers measurably better performance characteristics than the older NiMH technology that dominated RC transmitter power for many years. The 6.6V nominal voltage is specifically calibrated for Futaba and Hitec transmitter electronics, which means your radio will operate at peak performance without voltage regulation complications. The 2300mAh capacity is substantial enough to provide many hours of continuous use from a single charge, making this an economical choice that reduces the frequency of charging cycles and extends the practical operating day at your local RC track or flying field. The 15C discharge rating ensures that the battery can deliver current quickly enough to handle the demands of modern transmitter servos and electronics, including fast servo response times and rapid command processing. At just 88 grams, this battery pack represents a significant weight saving compared to older NiMH transmitter batteries, which improves overall transmitter ergonomics and reduces fatigue during extended operating sessions. The compact dimensions of 78 x 37 x 18mm have been carefully engineered to fit within standard transmitter battery compartments used by both Futaba and Hitec, eliminating fitment concerns and modification requirements. LiFe cells also exhibit superior cycle life compared to NiMH technology, meaning this battery will retain usable capacity for significantly more charge-discharge cycles, providing exceptional value and reliability over the long term.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is the Radient LiFe 2S transmitter battery suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. This battery is an excellent choice for anyone new to RC hobbies operating Futaba or Hitec transmitter systems. LiFe batteries are safer and more stable than older battery technologies, they require straightforward charging via standard LiPo/LiFe chargers, and the compact size makes installation simple for users of all experience levels.
• What transmitter systems is this battery compatible with? — This Radient LiFe battery pack is specifically designed for Futaba and Hitec TX (transmitter) systems. The 6.6V nominal voltage and compact form factor of 78 x 37 x 18mm make it ideal for these brands' standard transmitter battery compartments.
• How long does this battery last on a single charge? — The 2300mAh capacity typically provides many hours of continuous transmitter operation, though actual runtime depends on your specific transmitter model, servo quantity, and control input frequency. Most users report full-day operation from a single charge under normal usage conditions.
• What charger do I need for this LiFe battery? — You'll need a charger compatible with LiFe batteries. Many modern RC chargers support LiFe charging profiles, though you should verify your charger's capabilities before purchasing. LiFe batteries require different charging parameters than standard LiPo batteries to ensure safe and optimal performance.
• How does LiFe chemistry compare to NiMH transmitter batteries? — LiFe technology offers several advantages over the older NiMH batteries that powered transmitters for many years. LiFe cells provide better energy density, meaning more runtime in a smaller package, superior voltage consistency throughout the discharge cycle, longer overall lifespan with proper maintenance, and improved safety characteristics. The Radient LiFe 2S at just 88 grams is significantly lighter than equivalent NiMH packs, improving transmitter comfort and handling.
