Traxxas 2S battery compatibility question

[Sebbw]

Hi!


I need help finding the right battery for my Traxxas rustler (2S).

On my current battery there is a white cable/connector that is used for charging. I’m not really sure what it’s called or which new battery I should buy. I’d like to get a new battery, but I don’t know exactly what to choose so that it works with my current charger.


Are there batteries with the same connector, or is there an adapter so I can use other types of batteries as well?


Thanks in advance for any help!

I can’t find any battery that has that white connector and the Traxxas connector together on it.*

Welcome to RCT
Lots of makers offer TRX plugs on their batteries
(FYI the white connector is often called the 'balance connector')
Here's one:

9x19 is bang on.

The Traxxas plug has had a few iterations, the new one is called ID. Older Traxxas connectors are also compatible.

Here's a few different looking batteries and balance leads.

The top two have different looking balance connectors but connect to the same terminals.

The lower one is an EC3 power connector with a TRX - EC3 adapter on it. Same balance connector as the middle battery.
