HCL-HVC 11.4V-5800mAh-120C pack.  LCG Hardcase

Our HCL-HVC line will now feature LiHV cells. And as we’ve pushed these materials and formulations, we might have outdone ourselves as these new LiHV formulations have slightly lower internal resistance than previous series of HCL-HC.

Now you can charge up to 4.35V per cell on the new generation packs and boast even more runtime for the same size pack with a boost in power. And if you are more comfortable charging at the classic 4.20V per cell, 15% less than the sticker’s mAh but due to lower internal resistance you will still get good power.

HCL-RS 7.6V-6400mAh-120C LiHV 5mm Inboard Hardcase.  Will be submitted to ROAR for approval

Introducing the HCL-RS line of race packs (High Cycle Life - Race Series). These formulations are not the generic cells/packs you can get with different color stickers on them. These are recipes developed for us by an independent factory. While we have recently pushed mAh and C rates for applications like flight packs and speed run packs, the demands of racing are different. These new formulations hold better voltage, sag less under loads seen in off and on road racing by optimizing the IR and mAh per cubic centimeter of the cells.  Scroll down the page to see a discharge graph.

5300mAh-14.8V  speedrun pack. 

 Our SRD-V3 packs are an evolution of our popular SRD-V2 line of packs.  The cell design and formulation has been improved by using the latest in advanced materials which results is less voltage drop under high amp loads.  Made with 100% LCO we believe these to be the most powerful cells on the market to date.

A bigger/heavier pack will have less voltage drop assuming it’s made with the same cells.   Most companies offering drag and speed run packs are just using cells that factories are already using for other applications, and they achieve the voltage drop desired by adding cells in parallel.  SMC works directly with the factories engineer to design cells at a proper size/weight to optimize voltage drop under load.   The size of a cell can improve the voltage drop under the highest amp loads. 

To keep the weight as low as possible these are regular softcase packs with a top and bottom G10 protection plate.  To lower the resistance these are built with 8AWG wires and come with no connectors.  We do offer a selection of connectors that can fit the 8AWG wires.

We are now offering the Amass SH8.0 connectors which are the best 8mm connectors on the market.  We offer them in 3 configurations.   Black male/ Red female ,  Red Male/ Black female and black and red females.   We recommend using a male and female on the packs as this will prevent reverse voltage connection.   You can check out the resistance of these connectors versus the QS8 on the SH8.0 connector page by clicking HERE

Due to the extreme nature of speed runs and drag racing please note there is no warranty on these packs.  Each pack is tested prior to shipping to make sure it is free of manufacturing defects.

We are proud to introduce our Precision Lipo Alarm designed to get a more precise cutoff then an ESC.  When running the Traxxas or Arrma ESC which are known to have the cutoff set to low and not adjustable this is a must have item if you are interested in getting maximum cycle life out of your packs.

With standard Lipo alarms the alarm is set at the desired cutoff but the alarm doesn’t account for voltage drop which occurs under heavy acceleration.  This means the normal alarms will go off when the pack/cells haven’t reached the desired cutoff voltage.   The SMC Precision Alarm has been designed to have a delay before the alarm goes off so this prevents voltage drop from heavy acceleration to trigger the alarm.   The Precision Alarm will go off once the desired cutoff is reached.  You can see the difference between a normal alarm and the precision alarm by clicking on the video link below.

https://www.edusportsonline.com/jZH8ZE8xYXE

As you can see in the video with the normal alarm set at 3.70V per cell the alarm goes off after a few heavy accelerations.  The voltage of the cells is at 3.82V so there is still a good amount of play time left in the packs before the 3.70V cutoff is reached.   We then switched to the precision alarm set at 3.70V per cell and we didn’t film the entire session but we got around 7 minutes of play time before the alarm finally went off.   As you can see the cells were at 3.72V.   This precision alarm is more precise then the ESCs cutoff as the voltage is measured at the cells by connecting the alarm through the balance connector.   This by passes the voltage drop encountered in the power connectors and power wires.

We recommend you start with a 3.70V cutoff and see where the cells end up when the alarm goes off as the internal resistance of the cells will impact the amount of voltage drop.  So packs with higher internal resistance cells may require the voltage to be lowered to 3.60V per cell. 

The Precision Alarm is good for 2S to 8S packs.  We sell it as a kit which has a 6S extension cable so you can mount it permanently in your vehicle where there is room.  We also include 2 pieces of Velcro so you can mount the alarm either on the pack like the picture below or in the vehicle using the extension cable.  We recommend to use the fuzzy side of the Velcro on the back of the alarm.

To set the cutoff on the alarm you must connect it using the proper polarity so the outside black wire on the balance connector must be connected towards the left when the alarm is facing you.  You can see this in the picture below.   To adjust the cutoff press the button on the end of the alarm until you reach the desired cutoff which we recommend to start at 3.70V.  Please note the precision of the cell voltage readings on this alarm can be off by a few hundredths of a volt so it’s not recommended to use this alarm to check the precision of how well your charger charged the cells or if the cells are perfectly in balance once charged.

Below is a picture of the precision alarm installed in an E-Revo with the included extension.  We recommend you always put the alarm on the pack that is connected to the negative side of the ESC.  We also recommend you label your packs and switch sides every use.
