Spektrum Smart Technology: the next big thing in RC!

Spektrum has dropped a real bomb: the new Smart Technology product series. With this system LiPo batteries practically take care of themselves (the dream of every basher. Isn’t it?) while storing unique data (such as chemistry type, cycle count, charge rate and error log) plus programming options to custom tailor the Smart LiPo battery to your needs.

This innovative connection is made possible by an installed microchip on every battery, feeding the unique information to the new IC3 and IC5 connectors. The result is a sense that will make you wish everything about your hobby was smarter and so easy to use.

There are several battery packs that will be available in various specifications such as 2S 5000mAh 30C, 3S 5000mAh 30C, and 4S 5000mAh 30C variants with IC5 connector or with the smaller IC3 plug. Click here to check the lineup of Smart Batteries (you can use em with non-Smart systems, but only when charged with a Spektrum Smart device will all the benefits become obvious).

When the Smart Technology series will be released in November it will be possible to chose between two chargers: the Smart S1200 DC Charger, 1x200W (SPMXC1000) and the Spektrum Smart S2100 AC.

A robust and powerful switching DC power supply with 540W of adjustable power and Spektrum Smart technology that delivers efficient, quiet and long-lasting operation.
