Product summary and fitment

This Intellect IP-CC2S1600-40C is a 7.4V Lithium Polymer battery intended as a compact race-style source for 1/18 scale RC cars. With a stated 1600mAh capacity and a 40C continuous discharge spec, it suits applications where balance between size and steady output matters. The pack ships with an XH2.5 balance connector and an ABC(5102) discharge connector, and its approximate dimensions are 87x32x19mm for many short-wheelbase 1/18 chassis.

Use this Li-Po for bench checks and track tuning to observe ESC and motor behavior over the charge curve. Mounting follows common 1/18 practices: immobilize the pack in the tray, route connectors to avoid strain, and leave the balance lead accessible for charging. This product is for model use only and must not be used in full-size equipment.

Before final selection, confirm chassis clearance and connector compatibility; the Intellect IP-CC2S1600-40C provides a compact 7.4V 1600mAh option with a 40C rating well suited to setup work and short race stints.

Can I charge the pack faster than 1C?

Charging above 1C shortens charge time but increases thermal and lifespan stress. Only use higher charge rates if your charger, balance connector, and the pack's datasheet explicitly support it, and monitor cell temperatures while charging.

What are my options if my ESC does not accept ABC(5102)?

If your ESC uses a different discharge plug, you can either fit an adapter cable or replace the discharge lead with a compatible connector. Ensure solder joints are secure and polarity is correct when swapping plugs.

How should I inspect the balance lead before charging?

Verify the XH2.5 balance lead is intact with no exposed wires, check the connector housing for cracks, and ensure wires are not pinched. A good balance connection is essential for safe and accurate charging.

Is this pack suitable for brushless motors in 1/18 cars?

The 40C rating can support many brushless combos in 1/18 scale, but confirm your motor and ESC current draw under typical use. If your setup draws sustained high current, consider a pack with a higher C rating.
