With such a bewildering array of Li-Po batteries on the market now, how do you choose the best? The answer is simple, the new 'Impulse' range has to be that choice. We tested many, many cells before deciding that the 'Impulse' range offered the right combination of performance, safety, quality and price. So many Li-Po battery manufacturers claim high 'C' discharge rates and then fail to deliver in practical use. You can be confident that the constant 'C' rating on the Impulse label is a true figure and you're going to get the performance that you need and expect.

Performance is not the only story, the Impulse cells are constructed in a way that is more tolerant to 'run away' failures so characteristic of lesser cells of this type (Li-Po). The Impulse cells use a little more raw material to achieve this, at no dramatic penalty in terms of weight or size. There are smaller and lighter cells out there, but none offer this unique combination of factors that make them ideally suited to our model requirements

Just look at the pack construction method - The Impulse packs are all assembled using PCB boards to prevent unwanted 'shorting' that can occur in packs that just use tape. The security of the connections so close to where the tabs exit each cell ensures that flexing does not occur, which could result in the tab breaking. The ends of the pack are then protected using a small foam pad before a tough heatshrink sleeve is applied. Power cables are selected to suit the rated out output and securely soldered to the PCB. The cables are then taped to the pack along its length to prevent flexing at the joint. There are no plugs installed on the cables to let the buyer choose the plugs that are best for them. The balance plug is common to all Impulse packs and is suited to most of the balance chargers currently in the market. It too is securely soldered to the PCB.

WARNING! READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS, WARNINGS, AND CAUTIONS BEFORE USE!

DANGER - Can cause FIRE! Do NOT short, do not use if HOT or SWOLLEN! Do NOT charge or leave connected to a charger if unattended. Do NOT incinerate or use near fire or flame. Lithium batteries can only be charged with a lithium battery charger. For a list of recommended chargers see “other items needed” section.
