Applications

  • RC racing cars and competition vehicles
  • RC model boats and watercraft
  • Model trucks, excavators, and construction toys
  • Optoelectronic and luminous toys
  • Voice-activated and interactive toys
  • DIY robotics and electronics projects
  • Hobby-grade RC vehicles requiring 7.2V power

Choosing the Right Chemistry

Ni-Cd (Nickel-Cadmium) — 600mAh / 900mAh: Lighter weight, lower cost, excellent performance in extreme temperatures, and high discharge rate. Ideal for competitive racing where weight and burst power matter. Note: Ni-Cd batteries contain cadmium and must be recycled properly.

Ni-MH (Nickel-Metal Hydride) — 1200mAh / 1500mAh / 2000mAh: Higher capacity, no memory effect, more environmentally friendly. Preferred for longer runtime and general hobby use. Recommended for most users.

Connector Guide

  • SMP Connector: Standard mini plug, compatible with many entry-level and mid-range RC vehicles and chargers.
  • Tamiya Connector: Industry-standard large Tamiya plug, widely used in hobby-grade RC cars, boats, and compatible chargers.

Please verify your device's connector type before ordering. Custom connector arrangements are available — contact us with your requirements.

Operating Environment

  • Charging Temperature: 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F)
  • Discharging Temperature: -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F)
  • Storage Temperature: -10°C to 35°C (14°F to 95°F)
  • Humidity: Keep dry; avoid use in wet or high-humidity environments
  • Environment: Not waterproof — protect from rain, splashing, and immersion

Installation Instructions

  • Match the connector type (SMP or Tamiya) to your RC vehicle or charger before connecting
  • Insert the connector firmly and fully — do not force or bend the pins
  • Ensure your device is rated for 7.2V input before use
  • Use a charger specifically designed for Ni-MH or Ni-Cd batteries (match chemistry type)
  • Do not mix different chemistry types or capacities in the same device
  • Charge fully before first use for best performance

Storage Precautions

  • Store at 40–60% charge level for long-term storage (3 months or more)
  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources
  • Keep away from metal objects and flammable materials to prevent short circuits
  • Do not store in a fully discharged state — recharge every 3–6 months during storage
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets

Package Contents

  • 1 × 7.2V Ni-MH/Ni-Cd Battery Pack (capacity and connector as selected)

Safety Information

Charging: Use only a charger rated for the correct chemistry (Ni-MH or Ni-Cd). Do not overcharge or leave unattended during charging. Stop immediately if the battery becomes excessively hot or emits unusual odors.

Storage: Store in a cool, dry location. Never store in a fully discharged state or in extreme temperatures.

Operation: Do not short-circuit, puncture, crush, disassemble, or expose to fire. Avoid contact with water or moisture.

Temperature: Do not charge or discharge outside the specified temperature range. Extreme temperatures reduce performance and may cause safety hazards.

Disposal: Do not dispose of in regular household waste. Recycle at designated battery collection points. Ni-Cd batteries contain cadmium — proper recycling is mandatory in many regions.

Inspection: Inspect before each use. Discontinue use immediately if the battery shows signs of damage, swelling, leakage, or unusual heat.
