Motiv RC’s new Black Out charge harness is all-black to match any colour pit station. It uses the patent pending TQ Wire 4 to 5mm step bullet-type connectors, allowing to charge 4mm or 5mm bullet plug packs with the same lead. The ends are colour coded at the bullet’s using shrink wrap to designate positive and negative polarity. It also boasts 200 degree Celsius wire that allows to charge at higher amps if desired and at 2 feet long it allows to charge out of the way to keep the pit area clean. The harness also features extra length added to the most common XH balance plug which allows to reach the balance port without putting added stress on the wires.
