Overview Note: G2 batteries require the use of a Spektrum G2 Smart Charger or earlier Smart Charger with G2 update.
Drivers and pilots enjoy even more Smart advantages when using Spektrum Smart G2 50C LiPo batteries to power their vehicles. New "Generation 2" features make these LiPo packs — featuring a 50C continuous discharge rating for high performance and longevity — even simpler and safer to use together with your Smart charger.
For example, Spektrum Smart G2 technology makes it much easier to balance charge your LiPo batteries. Balancing information travels through the unique data wire of each Smart G2 battery's innovative IC3 or IC5 connector. As a result, only a single connection is needed — no separate balance lead is required.
Smart G2 batteries come from the factory programmed to discharge automatically to a safe storage voltage of 3.90V after 72 hours of inactivity. The benefits include longer battery life, better performance over the life of the pack, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your Smart battery is maintenance-free. You can change the battery's Auto Storage settings based on your own preferences. G2 batteries also offer a storage discharge rate that's three times faster than the previous G1 Smart batteries.
Smart G2 30C soft-case LiPo packs also include thicker internal metal side plates. These plates improve heat dissipation and provide more protection for the cells against punctures during rough landings or in similar impact-prone situations.
As with other Smart batteries, you'll never have to set your own charging preferences for a Spektrum Smart G2 battery until you want to. When a Smart G2 LiPo battery is connected to a Spektrum Smart charger, its unique charging parameters and health information upload to the charger from the battery's integrated memory microchip. Through the charger you can view and set preferences such as charge rates, so all that's required to charge the pack is connecting it to your Smart charger. Smart technology takes care of the rest.
Spektrum Smart G2 50C LiPo batteries store a wide variety of essential information, including:
- Battery Brand
- Battery Type
- Battery Capacity
- Battery C Rating
- Individual Cell Voltage
- Battery Temperature
- Charge/Discharge Cycles
Spektrum Smart G2 LiPo 50C batteries also maintain an error log including the number of over-heat, over-discharge and over-charge incidents. This data can be helpful in assuring that the battery you've chosen is right for the application. Innovative Spektrum Smart G2 LiPo 50C batteries are so easy to use, they nearly take care of themselves. It's easy to achieve peak battery performance, reliability and longevity with Smart G2 technology!
Simple and Quick
Smart Auto Storage Discharge
Spektrum Smart G2 batteries practically take care of themselves. G2 batteries come from the factory programmed to automatically discharge to a safe storage voltage of 3.90V after 72 hours of inactivity. The results are longer battery life, better performance over the life of the pack and peace of mind that your Smart battery comes maintenance-free. The battery's Auto Storage settings can be changed by the user based on preferences.

Smart Battery Technology — One Smart Connection
When connected to a Spektrum Smart charger, a Smart G2 battery's unique parameters, health, and balancing information upload automatically from its memory microchip through the IC3 or IC5 connector's data wire. To charge and balance the pack, you simply connect it to your Smart charger. Safe charging begins automatically, and no separate balance lead is needed.
Data Rich
An integrated microchip allows each Smart G2 battery to save vital information such as battery brand, chemistry, cell count, capacity, number of charging cycles, number of discharges, C rating, battery temperature, and internal resistance. Additionally, each battery will save a log of unhealthy events such as over-charge, over-discharge, and over-temperature. This allows you to make the most informed decision about each battery when you are getting your gear ready to go out and have fun.
IC3 and IC5 Connectors
The innovative Smart connection is made possible by a microchip installed in every battery, which feeds the battery's unique information through a data cable to its IC connector. Spektrum Smart IC3 and IC5 connectors have been designed from the ground up to provide a more solid connection, higher heat resistance, and effortless installation. IC connectors are also backwards compatible with EC connectors so you can use Smart batteries with older systems. Smart G2 batteries can be charged only with Smart chargers.

I'd never recommend these G2 lipo batteries to anyone. These 4 batteries came defective OUT-THe-BOX .. You could do better with another manufactures batteries. There is absolutely no quality control at horizon hobbies in china.. Then I tried to seek customer service from the manufacture, it's non-existent. The manufacture directly told me they needed to be used on a smart charger. Pictures included. YET they DID NOT stand behind their product. As the end user of the batteries, I think they should stand behind their products. This is not the case... Now I'm the one that is out hundreds of dollars, and no recourse. These are F grade batteries. Again you can do better, go elsewhere, spend you hard earned money somewhere else.

Very easy to use. But required a spektrum smart charger to use full features. Price is quite high for a battery. Used 40 cycles and lost a cell.

I’m new to this whole Lipo & rc stuff. I didn’t realize this was the “G2” version but I’m glad it was. One less cable to manage! My charger on the other hand complains it needs a balance cable. Eventually I will be moving to all G2 stuff..I say eventually because literally about a month ago I got into the rc world & got all the standard smart battery/charging stuff so it’ll be a bit before I upgrade. I think G2 was already a thing but was never mentioned or recommended to me. I would definitely recommend G2 to newcomers since it’s one less cable to manage & it’s easier with just a single cable overall.The battery I received was in great condition no scuffs of any kind & it was perfectly balanced!I was able to use, charge, balance & storage charge it several times already. No issues at all and holds its charge for quite a while. I ran this on an arrma granite v3(?) just to give it a few uses but it’s for an arrma big rock v3 I’m waiting on. (I really do enjoy 3s it’s plenty fast for me anymore & I’d need an indestructible vehicle.)This newer G2 battery is great! Now the next upgrade they should do is getting 10k mah in these! That’s the only downfall with smart batteries from my newcomer eyes. If there was 10k+ mah I’d be even more thrilled. But as is the G2 5000 mah 3s 50c is a good battery for me.(I do like the 100c versions but my controller is stock & doesn’t seem responsive enough for that. Even the 50c seems too much for the newer granite v3?. I did the full setup with turn radius & throttle position as well.)Overall I would definitely recommend this G2 style & 3s. Neat battery!
