FAQ

What is the G-Tech connector on GEA506S60E5GT? The G-Tech balance connector incorporates an ID chip that stores battery information including chemistry, specifications and charging parameters. A compatible G-Tech charger can read this information to simplify charger setup.

Do I need a G-Tech charger to charge this battery? No. G-Tech provides automatic identification and charging setup when used with supported G-Tech chargers, but Gens Ace states that G-Tech batteries can also be charged using suitable conventional LiPo chargers with the charging parameters configured manually.

What main power connector does this battery use? GEA506S60E5GT is factory fitted with an EC5 main power connector.

What is the maximum charge rate? Published specifications for GEA506S60E5GT list a maximum charge rate of 5C, equivalent to 25A for a 5000mAh battery. The charger, leads and charging setup must also support the selected charging current.

What is the discharge rating of this battery? The pack is rated at 60C continuous discharge with a published peak rating of 120C.

How large is the Gens Ace GEA506S60E5GT? The battery measures approximately 165mm long, 47mm wide and 45mm high and weighs approximately 755g. Check the model's battery compartment dimensions, weight limits and connector requirements before purchase.

What RC models can use GEA506S60E5GT? Gens Ace documents applications including the Mikado Logo 500, Align T-Rex 550 and 600, Gaui X5, Outrage 550, Hirobo SDX and FMS Votec 322. Compatibility still depends on battery dimensions, weight, voltage, connector and the electrical requirements of the individual model.

Is this a hardcase battery? No. GEA506S60E5GT is a soft pack LiPo battery and should be installed where the battery is properly supported and protected from impact or abrasion.

Important Notes

• Use only with RC systems designed to operate from a 6S 22.2V LiPo battery
• Confirm battery compartment dimensions, allowable battery weight and EC5 connector compatibility before purchase
• Use a suitable LiPo balance charger and select the correct 6S LiPo charging settings when automatic G-Tech identification is not available
• Never charge a damaged, swollen or punctured LiPo battery
• Charge and store LiPo batteries using appropriate LiPo safety procedures and supervision
