Comprehensive List of Available Lipos with Specifications, Prices, & Comparative Data

[write2dgray]

With the hundreds of battery choices that are out there these days it has become an exhaustive task to even locate all the product options which exist.

In order to save everyone the time of seeking out information on all the available lipo batteries out there, I decided to share the data that I have compiled which includes a comprehensive list of every available lipo from 2S and 150 mAh to 15S and 10,000 mAh. All the major brands are included such as Thunder Power, FlightPower, Kong Power, Hyperion, CommonSenseRC, TrueRC, Tenergy, AirThunder, MaxAmps, PolyQuest, Neu, Tanic, etc.

It is in spreadsheet format and allows you to sort by headings as well as filter the given results. Outside of normal statistics (weight, dimensions, price, etc.) there are columns which allow you to sort to determine which battery offers the most bang for the buck (capacity per dollar) or capacity per weight (mAh/gram).

The product lists will be updated frequently with new products as they become available. Check it out here:

Feedback on this work in progress would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know what you would like to see added and information posted in this thread will be updated to the website. So, if you'd like to see a product that I am missing, you see a stat that is wrong, or if you know where you can find an item for a lower price please post it here.

Cheers,
David

I have added the balance connector type as part of the description for each battery as suggested by another user. Here is a partial screenshot of the 3S LiPo battery list filtered by "2100 mAh" and sorted by mAh per gram as an example of what's available:

If you see any updates or revisions that need to be made please let me know.

Cheers!

nice work but you forgot the Infina Models Infina Ion 3s2p 2000mah Transmitter battery.
Can be seen on infinamodels.com

Wow! That must have taken "millions" of hours to put together.

Thanks a lot.

I have added the Infina transmitter batteries to the list - thanks for the heads-up!

Wow! That must have taken "millions" of hours to put together.

Thanks a lot.

PeterMaybe not millions, but it has taken many, many hours of time to find and develop specifications for the thousands of electric flight components which exist. Hopefully me doing it once will save everyone else the effort of repeatedly compiling this comparative info. I have also added a few hundred more lipos which have recently been released including many additional ThunderPower eXtreme V2s and ProLites - enjoy!

United hobbies recently got a few more sizes of the Zippy batteries in as well as a different series of pack. I purchased some of the zippy-h 3300mah 20c 3 cell packs.

Thanks for the heads-up. I have updated all the lists with United Hobbies current inventory selection and availability. They added quite a few hexTronik, LooongMax, and Zippy batteries with a "25C" rating as well as some larger Zippy packs (6S/5000mAh anyone?). I will post the updated lists this evening.
Great Job!!!!!
Great job this a wealth of information and a great time saver
Thanks for the compliments - I hope that everybody can benefit from the sharing of this information!

I have made some major updates to the lists to include a lot of new products and pricing on lipos and other electric flight components. Many new brushless motors have been added including the complete line from AXI, HiMax, Hyperion, Neu, Plettenburg, Razor, RS-Motoren, Scorpion, and a few others. Let me know if you see any I missed and I'll continue to add to the lists. Enjoy!

What a great reference set!

On the motors, I've actually got a hand-written list for the ones I care about for comparison sake. This is a huge step up!

One thing that would be good to keep for the motors is the pole count. I need it for setting up the EagleTree eLogger's brushless motor sensor. Finding some of them can be a real pain! Another one would be max RPM which can help you plan as well.

Motor brands which I don't see on the list are: Actro, Mega (many missing), Kontronik (again, quite a few missing), and Z-Power. I have some tables for Z-Power bookmarked:

One other idea around this that would be handy would be the ability to build a list of my own for comparison.

Thansk John! I appreciate the feedback and will incorporate the linked information and as much of your suggestions as I can into the website. I have been doing all the web stuff myself so far and my skills leave a lot to be desired. There is a lot more I could do if my programming was up to snuff and time permitted! So far it is only simple presentation and sorting of the data, but I hope to add the features you describe in time, but probably with help on the programming side :o.

The charts are nice but with all the new 6s li-po's out for the Trex 500 the chart is not up to date. i.e. Thunder Power, Flight Power 6s - 2100, 2200, 2500 mah just a few I noticed.

Thank you for the work you done.

Thank you for the work you done.Thanks for the info - can you provide a link to any items that you note are missing? I have heard of a few coming out to fill this niche, but have seen very few on the market so far. I need help from you guys in finding all the ones out there and will post any I find as well.

Thanks!

You should be able to find all of the FP stuff on www.flightpowerusa.com. They have some spreadsheets with dimensions and weights as well.

The lists have been updated to include the current complete line from Flightpower. Some of the new offerings include the 6S 2500 Evo25 and EVOLITE, a lot of new EVO30s and very large packs (6S-10S), and some new lipos designed for use with transmitters and RC cars. Thanks for the link.

Big help for someone looking for a good charger.(like me) ThanksGlad I could help out!

The latest lipos from DualSky and the Cellpro Revolectrix Black Label line have been added as well as hundreds of additional brushless motors and ESCs. Here are the current counts for each list:

[write2dgray]

All the lists have been updated to include many new products and the motor list has been expanded to include every motor from Hobbycity/United Hobbies. The complete lines from many other manufacturers including Mega Motors, MP Jet, MicroDAN, Torcman, Suppo, Turnigy were added and there are now over 1200 motors listed in total. Columns can be sorted in the spreadsheets by clicking on the column headings. Enjoy!

Still excellent stuff!

It looks like you're missing the new Jive 60+ HV:

http://www.kontronik.de/Datenblattjive.html

That page makes me just drool...

Also, there's a comment on RCG that the LV are March, and HV are due in April.

The new Jive line by Kontronik has all been posted. Status is still unavailable as you said, but yes, it is an ESC that I am looking forward to trying out as well. It is looking to be a heavyweight (84g) performer at up to 12S!
