Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can I use this for my 6S drone battery? Yes, for charging only.

2. Why is the wire so thin for an XT90? It is 16AWG, designed specifically for standard chargers (B6AC) that output low current (6A). It saves weight and cost.

3. Will it melt if I charge at 5 Amps? No, 16AWG can handle ~12A continuously without getting warm. 5A is perfectly safe.

4. Can I use it to fly my drone? NO. Flying draws 50A-90A. This wire will melt instantly. Use it for charging only.

5. Does it fit the IMAX B6AC? Yes, it is the perfect match for the B6AC.

6. Is the connector compatible with Anti-Spark XT90? Yes, it fits both standard XT90 and XT90-S connectors.

7. Is the wire silicone? Yes, high-quality soft silicone.

8. What is the length? 18cm.

9. Can I use it for discharge mode? Only if your discharge rate is set below 5A (most chargers limit discharge to 1A or 2A anyway, so yes).

10. Is it cheaper than the 10AWG version? Yes, significantly cheaper.

11. Do I need to connect the balance lead? Yes, always connect the white balance plug when charging LiPos.

12. Is the banana plug standard 4mm? Yes.

13. Can I use this for Lead Acid batteries? Yes.

14. Is the connector genuine Amass? It is a high-quality compatible connector.

15. Does it come with caps? No.

16. Is the soldering secure? Yes, we inspect the joints for mechanical strength.

17. Can I use this for e-bikes? For charging the e-bike battery: Yes. For powering the motor: No.

18. What if I have a 1000W charger? Do not use this cable. Get the 10AWG version to utilize your charger's full power.

19. Is the wire copper? Yes, Tinned Copper.

20. Why buy this one? It's the most flexible and affordable option for standard daily charging.
