Our take on the CNHL 5s Lipo Battery 5000mAh 40c with XT90 Plug

The CNHL 5S 5000mAh 40C is a 5-cell lithium polymer pack aimed at large RC planes, EDF jets and 1/8-scale vehicles that run on 18.5V. It uses an XT90 connector and is rated for 40C continuous and 80C burst discharge, with 5C max charging. At 660g and 157mm long it is a big, heavy brick, so check your model's battery bay and center of gravity before buying. Its rating sits at 3.4 out of 5 from 7 ratings, so owner feedback is mixed and thin.

Questions and answers

Is this battery worth it?
It is a reasonable value if you need a 5S 5000mAh pack with an XT90 plug and high burst rating. With only 7 ratings at 3.4 out of 5, treat it as a budget option and check the return policy.
Can I use it in a 6S or 4S setup?
No. It is a 5-cell, 18.5V pack, so it only suits models and ESCs rated for 5S. Running it in a 6S setup would exceed the voltage, and in a 4S setup it would be underpowered.
How long does it take to charge?
At the 5C max rate a full charge from storage takes roughly 12 minutes with a charger and power supply that can deliver about 25A. Most people charge at 1C to 2C, which takes 30 to 60 minutes.
What charger do I need?
You need a LiPo-capable charger that supports 5-cell packs and can balance them. Match the charge current to the pack's 5C limit only if your charger and power supply can handle it.
Will it fit my model?
Check your battery tray against 48 x 45 x 157mm and allow for wires. At about 660g it is heavy, so confirm the model balances with that weight in place.
What is in the box?
The pack comes with an XT90 plug fitted. Check the listing for balance lead and warranty details before ordering.
What do buyers say about the CNHL 5s Lipo Battery 5000mAh 40c with XT90 Plug?
