CS-Electronic Competition Power Discharger 200W

CS-Electronic from Germany have introduced their new 200W Competition Power Discharger device for the use in combination with the recently announced Space X3-Competition Duo charger. The discharger allows for discharge currents of up to 16A while offering balance discharging and single cell voltage monitoring, ensuring safe and secure discharging using high currents. The results will help to identify weak packs but the discharger also allows to bring fully charged packs to storage voltage a lot faster than just using the charger’s discharge function.

Sunpadow Platin Series 5200mAh Slim Pack LiPo battery

Sunpadow have officially introduced their all-new Platin Series 5200mAh Slim Pack LiPo battery pack. Of a revolutionary new design the hardcase battery is only 36mm wide which is about 24 percent narrower than a traditional 47mm battery and at 5200mAh capacity the pack weighs in at only 246g, however the major benefit of the slim battery is a greatly improved weight balance compared to a standard size battery pack as it optimises the weight distribution especially of today’s mid-motor touring cars. The Slim Pack battery was used by Xray and Sunpadow factory driver, Bruno Coelho to win the Touring Modified class last weekend’s SIGP event in Xiamen, China in pretty dominant fashion. The battery measured 139x36x25.1mm, it is built using high-performance 65C/130C cells and with 5200mAh it offers more than enough runtime even for power-hungry modified classes.
