Details
LiFe (lithium iron phosphate) is a lithium-based battery technology that is more stable and safer than LiPO. A123 batteries are based on LiFe technology. LiFe packs can be charged very rapidly and be discharged all the way without damage. Their lower voltage make them suitable for receivers that use 6V receiver batteries. On the downside, LiFe packs have lower voltage and smaller capacity than LiPOs of the same weight.
Product Highlights:
- Lighter and smaller than NiCad and NiMH battery of the same capacity
- Lower voltage than a LiPO, can be used with 6V receivers without a voltage regulator.
- Includes two universal RX connectors, compatible with both Futaba and JR RX.
- More cycle life than LiPO, up to 1000 charge cycles.
- More stable and durable than a LiPO. LiFe rarely catch fire and would not be damaged in over-discharge.
Specifications:
- 2500mAh Capacity
- 2S - 6.6V - 5C Discharge
- Dimensions: 133mm X 17mm X 24mm (5.24in X 0.67in X 0.94in)
- Weight: 138.7g (4.90oz)

Been using theses batteries for a few years now. I have them in everything from a trainer all the way up to my 50cc gassers. I’m very pleased with the performance. (Posted on 10/29/2017)Value Overall Quality - Positive Review by Robert Mason

I was a bit spetical when I ordered these batteries. I am now very impressed! I use them in my giant scale planes. Using 6 300 oz servos plus the receiver, I get 7-8 10 minute flights and still have plenty of power! I also use them on the ignition. I only charge at 1 amp and they are filly charged in 45-50 minutes. My friends have been so impressed, they have started using them also. These batteries are great and the price is much lower than Value Hobbies competitors! Thank, Value Hobbiy!

I purchased ;two of these early in the summer. I've only had to charge them two (2) times all summer. I use one in a Senior Telemaster with 7 digital servos and have had absolutely no problems. The other is in a Goldberg Tiger 2. In the Tiger 2 I think the charge will last forever. I just order 2 more. Get this ;battery.

Overall Quality Value
I purchased this battery because it was so cheap compared to the other a123 batteries that I purchased. I put this battery in a 1/4 scale clipped wing cub with all standard servos and flew about a 10 minute flight. I charged after the first flight and it only used 68 milliamps, Wow is all I can say. I will purchase more of these in the future, maybe one of the smaller packs because this one is longer than any NiCad pack and I could fly for a week with the 2500. Very happy will buy again.. Thanks (Posted on 2/27/2014) - Great deal! Review by A

Great battery at a great price! I got tired of always swapping the AA batteries in my transmitter and this battery has solved the problem! It lasts almost forever without needing charged. (Posted on 2/27/2014)Value Overall Quality - bettery than I expected Review by Robert

I pick up one of these to use as a Rx batt in a glow powered plane with 6 standard size servos and a retract servo. I bought the 1100mah first and seemed to work fine, but from the advice of a fellow flyer of glow planes, I went with this one. kind of long but thin and is not that heavy. It fit down in my fuselage fine. Will soon find out how may flights on a charge? I was told I could could get 6 to 8 flight before you need a charge. great price. and valuehobbys shipping is super fast!!, (Posted on 6/23/2013)Quality Value Overall
