FAQ
Will the EcoPower ECP-4018 battery fit the Axial SCX30? Yes. This battery is specifically designed for the Axial SCX30 platform. It features a PH2.0 connector and compact dimensions of 37.4 x 13.7 x 8mm. Check your vehicle's original battery connection before installation.
What connector does the ECP-4018 use? The battery comes with a PH2.0 connector. Confirm the connector type and polarity before connecting it to any vehicle or charger.
What charger should I use for this battery? Use a compatible 2S LiPo balance charger capable of charging at 160mA or less. The manufacturer specifies a maximum charge rate of 1C. A charger with a fixed charging current above 160mA is not suitable.
How long will a 160mAh battery last? Runtime depends on the crawler's motor load, terrain, driving style and electronic setup. The 160mAh capacity alone does not establish a fixed runtime.
Can this battery be used in an Axial SCX24? It may work with other compatible micro RC vehicles, but the ECP-4018 is specifically designed for the SCX30. Check battery tray dimensions, connector polarity, voltage requirements and current demand before using it in another model.
Can I use a 3S LiPo charger setting? No. This is a 2S battery and must be charged using a compatible 2S LiPo charging setting. Incorrect cell count or charging voltage can damage the pack and create a fire hazard.
Important Notes
- This product contains one rechargeable 2S LiPo battery. A charger is not included.
- Use only a compatible lithium polymer balance charger set for two cells and a charge current no greater than 0.16A.
- Never leave a LiPo battery unattended while charging.
- Always charge outside the RC vehicle on a non-flammable surface, using a suitable LiPo charging safety bag or container.
- Do not overcharge, puncture, crush, short-circuit or physically damage the battery.
- Do not use or charge a battery that is swollen, leaking or damaged.
- Prevent over-discharge by following the vehicle manufacturer's low-voltage cutoff requirements. EcoPower's published guidance specifies a minimum of 3.2V per cell under its recommended conditions.
- Allow the battery to cool before recharging after use.
- Never store or charge the battery in direct sunlight, a hot vehicle or other high-temperature environment.
- For extended storage, use an appropriate LiPo storage charge setting, typically around 3.8V per cell.
- Check battery dimensions, PH2.0 connector polarity and vehicle voltage compatibility before use.
- RC vehicle, charger, charging adapters and other accessories are not included.
