Reedy VMX R-42 Matched 6-Cell Team

Reedy VMX R-42 Matched 6-Cell Team

Reedy have released these new VMX R-42 matched team cells which have been optimised using high-tech equipment designed in house to apply an intense energy pulse to new IB4200 WC edition NiMH cells, with the end results of this exclusive process being reduced internal resistance, increased voltage output, and more power. These enhanced cells are cycled, then power-matched using a 35-amp discharge, a process which eliminates weak cells and those that do not fall within the exclusive percentage that are good enough to be hand selected as Reedy VMX Ultra-Output grade. Reedy VMX cells are packaged in a pack of 6 and come in a compact plastic clamshell that provides full view of each cell’s test data.
