Hextronic batteries a lot cheaper but perform as well as FP, TP etc?

[Ghostfit]

I think for the 2.2A 3S1P battery market, the difference between cost/performance isn't so clear ......but for the 4.2A 5S1P or 6S1P ...BOY is there a difference in terms of $$$ !!!

[mave]

Let me try to understand a bit here. 70+A is roughly 15C. And when you say continuous 70+A is roughly 15C for the 2P and 'Continuous' means once in a while reaching 70+A and not 70+A all the way for the whole duration of the discharge. Correct?

Cool!
Adrainli, keep us updated on your finding.

I have parellel two 3S lipos and pushed them to 90+A on my boat. Continuous running at 70+A n they had no problem at all. But as I mentioned b4, these packs cant sustain continuous constant discharge for long.

They are good for jus fun playing ard but for serious competitions or the need for constant power, go for those branded ones. So far tried Hyperion, TP n currently PolyQuest. I also have FP n waiting to try them out.

70+A is the continuous discharge. Continuous is all the way till batt flat.

90+A is the burst discharge. Once in a while on a striaght line.


These are measured wif a Watt's Up meter.

HXT 2200mAh

Yo bro, me using it on my Yak54 and Extra300. Very good. After flying it, can hardly feel heat on it. Based on so brothers feedbacks, think user is the person that know. As for me, think it is worth the $$$ in buying as it perform as good as my FP.

Happy flying

Ah ? ....Long Kang if got water, can play boat wat ?


...Sorry ! ...today abit boring at the office lah ! myself aredi !

Hi,
When the manufacturer says 20C continous , it looks good but wait a minute ....I bet you they test this condition it in a well ventilated room like an aircon room.
When you use it an enclose vehicles like inside an aircraft , there isn't much ventilation to the LIPOS , I am doubtful if this batteries can survive even at a lower 15C discharged rate in this situation. I am not surprised this batteries gets bloated or cannot sustain the power for long under this condition in actual usage situation.

Just my 2 cents comment...

Sorry for the Typo bro!
(but when I saw the way you describe, AKA long Kang, I can't help but laugh)

70+A is the continuous discharge. Continuous is all the way till batt flat.

90+A is the burst discharge. Once in a while on a striaght line.

I was doubtful at first too BUT I am seeing my mates using it for 3D on 30-40 sized aircrafts for last few weeks with enough spare power to rocket vertically unlimited lol. Seriously, I am using FP and another mate is using HXT and if you see our 2 planes fly, you won't be able to tell the diff and they are definitely 20-25C rating continously.

Just had my 2nd flight on HXT. No difference to me. Will need more cycles to see how lasting this brand is.
IF you ask me, I wont push that lipo hard. For something half the price of reputable brands, I wont push it that hard. I never trust those figures put out by factories, maybe 80% I take to heart.
Just like hind holes, even if its big in diameter, prolong pushing of huge crap will tear it. Simple logic.

You're the expert on such matters ! ......wun argue with you on that !

tear already should have higher throughput in future???
