Product Details

Direct Answer / Engineering Summary

The GEB 14.8V 4S 5000mAh 25C High-Rate LiPo Battery Pack is an engineered Lithium Polymer (LiPo) power solution manufactured specifically for high-thrust aerial vehicles. Delivering a 14.8V nominal working voltage (3.7V per cell × 4S) and 5,000mAh rated capacity (74.0Wh energy), it sustains 25C continuous discharge (125A continuous load) with peak bursts up to 50C (250A ≤ 5s). Built with laminated pouch foil stacking and ultra-low internal impedance, it prevents steep voltage sag under heavy collective pitch demands on 500–600 class RC helicopters, surveying quadcopters, and cinematic UAV platforms.

Engineering Overview

Product Overview

The GEB 14.8V 4S 5000mAh 25C LiPo Battery Pack combines high gravimetric energy density (~150Wh/kg) with high continuous discharge stability. Unlike standard cylindrical steel cans, this pack utilizes precision stacked polymer pouch cells enclosed in heavy-duty impact-resistant PVC heat shrink with internal aluminum heat-shielding plates. Weighing Approx. 495g and measuring 138 × 44 × 34 mm, it features factory-fitted high-flexibility 10AWG silicone discharge cables terminated with genuine XT90 or XT60 connectors, alongside an industry-standard JST-XH 5-pin balancing connector for cell-by-cell voltage management.

Engineering & Integration

Integration & Operational Boundary Conditions

Balance Charging Mandate: Always connect both the primary power leads and the JST-XH balance lead to an authentic balance charger. Cell delta voltage must remain within ≤ 20mV across all four cells.

In-Flight Low Voltage Telemetry: Calibrate UAV flight controller battery voltage alarms to sound low-voltage warning at 3.60V/cell (14.4V) and trigger automatic Return-To-Land (RTL) at 3.50V/cell (14.0V) under throttle load to maintain pack longevity.

Storage Voltage Maintenance: Never store high-rate LiPo packs fully charged (4.20V/cell) or depleted (< 3.60V/cell) for more than 48 hours. Discharge or charge each cell to 3.82V–3.85V using the charger’s Storage function.

⚙ Engineering FAQ & B2B Procurement Specifications

What is the turnaround time for custom battery pack prototypes and mass production for GEB 14.8V 4S 5000mAh 25C High-Rate LiPo Battery Pack for RC Helicopters & Drones?
Custom prototype development typically requires 7 to 10 business days after CAD drawing approval and technical specification freeze. Commercial mass production turnaround is typically 15 to 20 business days. Standard OEM minimum order quantities (MOQ) start at 50 to 100 units depending on cell chemistry, custom mold tooling, and casing complexity.
Does GEB provide UN38.3 test summaries, MSDS, and Class 9 dangerous goods export compliance?
Yes. General Electronics Technology (GEB) provides complete first-party compliance verification for all industrial battery packs, including UN38.3 test reports, 1.2m drop test appraisal certificates, MSDS/SDS sheets, and certified dangerous goods packaging compliant with IATA air transport and IMDG maritime shipping regulations.
What smart telemetry protocols and BMS protection features are supported?
Our custom smart BMS architectures support industry-standard communication protocols including UAVCAN, CANbus 2.0B, SMBus, UART, and RS485. Integrated hardware protections include multi-tier over-voltage, over-discharge, continuous over-current, short-circuit, and dual-channel NTC thermal cutoff safeties with active cell balancing options.
What are the recommended continuous and peak burst discharge margins?
To maximize lifecycle endurance and electrochemical stability, we recommend designing with a 15% to 20% continuous discharge headroom margin under typical operating loads. Peak burst discharge ratings should strictly adhere to specified duration windows (typically ≤10 seconds) while ensuring pack operating temperatures remain below 65°C.
