340mah 7.6V LiHV Hardcase Battery Pack

The Hobby Hideaway Verdict: Ultimate Power Meets Chassis Stability! When you are racing 1/28 scale cars, every gram and every millimeter of wire matters. Reflex Racing’s 340mAh LiHV Hardcase Battery delivers exceptional punch, lower internal resistance (IR), and a perfect drop-in fit for your standard chassis. At Hobby Hideaway, we consider this hardcase pack an essential upgrade not just for the power it delivers, but for the incredible handling and consistency it brings to your setup without the need for wide-battery conversion kits.

Why Hardcase? Consistency is Key A hardcase battery eliminates the dangling plugs and long, messy wires found on soft packs. In a micro RC where we use tiny 0.9g mass dampers to balance the car, a loose battery wire bouncing around during a race can actually unsettle your suspension. A hardcase battery sits solidly in place, ensuring your car's center of gravity remains perfectly static. This translates to a vehicle that behaves smoothly and predictably through every corner, keeping you planted on the track.

Maximum Efficiency and Safety The hardcase design cuts down on connection points by utilizing direct gold bullet plugs. This drops the internal resistance of the entire circuit, leading to better current flow, less heat loss, and more consistent punch throughout your heat. Capable of being safely charged to 8.6V, it gives you that winning edge. Furthermore, the hard shell protects the delicate LiPo cells from impacts and chassis punctures, while eliminating the risk of wires breaking at the shrink wrap.

Key Features & Technical Specs:

• High Voltage Power: 340mAh LiHV capacity, safe to charge up to 8.6V for maximum performance.

• Optimized Handling: Hardcase design eliminates shifting weight from loose wires, improving overall chassis stability.

• Clean Installation: Bullet-to-battery system opens up tremendous space under low-slung bodies (like Pan Cars) for pristine wiring.

• Direct Fitment: Fits the standard Reflex Racing RX28 and most 1/28 scale AWD/RWD chassis right out of the box without needing a 24mm battery conversion.

• Ultra-Lightweight: Weighs approximately 17g, saving you 2g over the larger 400mAh pack for maximum agility.

• Includes: 1 battery pack and 2 gold bullet plugs.

Hobby Hideaway Pro Tip: To get the longest lifespan and best performance out of this LiHV pack, we recommend charging it at a steady 0.8A to 1.0A. For maximum consistency on the track, make sure the battery is mounted snugly in your chassis tray. A battery that doesn't shift during high-speed transitions or after a jump will give you the predictable handling required to hit your apexes consistently, ensuring you finish the race strong!
