Spektrum IC5 Battery Connector (2) (SpektrumXCA501)

Product Information

As the names suggest, Micro lipo battery connectors are very low amp connectors. They range from 1-30 Amps depending on their resistance and build. Let's start with 3S systems - models that use 1s, 2s and 3s batteries. Dean's connectors, XT60, EC3 and IC3 are all rated for up to 60 A of continuous current. Also, my only complaint is that the EC5 is a little hard to unplug, but that doesn’t make much of a difference. On the contrary, IC5 is more refined and more convenient in construction. IC5 and EC5: Which is better?

Each type RC car battery connector has its own unique shape and electrical specifications. Always make sure to review the connector's amp rating and compare that with your LiPo battery before installing a new connector.EC5 and XT60 can be used up to 1000 times and are very durable. Generally speaking, as long as it is not abused, there should be no problem (Tips: the number of cycles of lithium batteries is 200~300 times). Do I need to replace XT60 with EC5? If you are using 12 S batteries, then these are what you might want to consider using. Or if you have a high speed RC car and you need to the keep the throttle wide open for a while, this would possibly be ideal. Especially when you are talking about high powered applications as these adapters have a lot of resistance and so cause a lot of heat to be generated in the system. But if you have large-size planes, or drones, which you don’t need to change the battery frequently, you can go for them.

Got a high-power drone? Then this connector is for you. With a load capacity of 150 Amps, the XT150 is the Godzilla of the XT family. It comes with an attached wire and uses 6mm pins to connect with the lipo battery. Cool isnt it! You need to be aware that unsuitable connectors make it difficult to solder when you change plugs. However, dummy soldering can lead to improper circuitry and create major potential problems. In short, using the right size is the right choice. Frequently Asked Questions Q: Can I use the IC5 Battery / IC3 Device adapter? Faster Auto Discharge at up to 1.5A to safe storage voltage for long battery life and improved performanceOf all LiPo battery connector types, Deans Connectors are, without a doubt, the industry standard. They have been around for like forever, and have been the number one choice for most discerning RC enthusiasts and those who are part of RC racing clubs. Question: Can an EC5 male plug be connected to a car with an IC5 female plug? Answer: Yes. You can connect directly without using additional adapters or changing plugs. There are a lot of lipo battery connectors out there. Not all of them serve the same type of purpose or power output. And they connect differently. Depending on your need and purpose, you have to choose the right one. Otherwise, you might end up either compromising the battery or the device. So read your devices and battery instructions before you buy any of them.
