SMC Racing 2560-3S1P HCL-HP 11.1V 2500mAh 60C LiPo Battery — EC3 Connector

The SMC Racing 2560-3S1P HCL-HP 11.1V 2500mAh 60C LiPo Battery is a high-performance 3S pack built with 100% LCO cathodes for maximum cycle life and consistent power output. The HCL-HP series is engineered to deliver top-tier performance at its weight class — you will not find a pack with better performance for the same weight. This pack is a direct fit for the Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S and ships with an EC3 connector. Note: these are standard LiPo cells (not LiHV) and must be charged at 4.20V per cell.

Key Features

• Part Number: 2560-3S1P
• Capacity: 2500mAh (±5%)
• Voltage / Cell Count: 11.1V 3S
• Discharge Rate: 60C
• Connector: EC3
• Wire Gauge: 12AWG
• Dimensions: 20 x 34 x 109mm (G10 bottom & top plates)
• Weight: 167g
• 100% LCO cathode construction

Compatibility

Direct fit for the Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S. Verify connector type and battery compartment dimensions against your specific vehicle before purchasing.

Charging

• Charge rate: 1C to 5C
• Higher charge rates will reduce mAh returned to the pack and reduce cycle life — 1C to 2C recommended for maximum longevity
• Must be charged at 4.20V per cell — not LiHV compatible

Benefits

• 100% LCO cathode construction maximizes cycle life and sustained performance
• 60C discharge rate delivers high-current output for demanding RC applications
• G10 top and bottom plates provide structural protection for the cell stack
• 12AWG wire handles high-current discharge without voltage sag
• Direct fit for Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S — no modifications needed

Quick Take

Running a Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S and need a 3S pack that fits and performs? The SMC HCL-HP 2500mAh 60C EC3 is purpose-matched for the Mini XRT — LCO cathode construction, 60C discharge, and G10 plate protection in a 167g pack.
