5. Operating Instructions

The XT60 Parallel Y Splitter Cable allows you to combine the capacity of two batteries for extended runtime or increased power delivery, while maintaining the nominal voltage of a single battery.

• Extended Runtime: When two batteries of the same voltage and capacity are connected in parallel, the total capacity is doubled, leading to longer operating times for your RC models.
• Charging: This cable can also be used to connect two batteries to a single charger port, provided the charger supports parallel charging and the batteries are of the same voltage and state of charge. Always follow your charger's instructions and safety guidelines for parallel charging.
• Compatibility: This cable is designed for XT60 connectors and 12AWG wire gauge, suitable for applications requiring moderate to high current flow.

6. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your XT60 Parallel Y Splitter Cables.

• Cleaning: Keep connectors free from dirt, dust, and moisture. Use a dry, soft cloth to wipe them if necessary.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect the cable for any signs of wear, cuts, or damage to the insulation. Check connectors for corrosion or deformation.
• Storage: Store cables in a clean, dry environment, ideally at room temperature. Avoid extreme temperatures or direct sunlight.
• Handling: Always pull connectors by the plastic housing, not by the wires, to prevent damage to the wire-to-connector joint.
