Key Specifications at a Glance

Why Choose the Midlands Power 2,200mAh Ultra Ternary Battery?

2.8mm Thinner Than the 34×62mm 2,000mAh — More Energy, More Current

The step from the 34×62mm 2,000mAh to the 34×96mm 2,200mAh delivers more performance simultaneously across every meaningful specification while reducing thickness:

2.8mm thinner, 10% more energy, 26A more peak current — for 5g of additional weight and a 34mm longer bay. The extended 96mm length distributes electrode layers across more planar area, allowing the cell to store more energy while building up less thickness than the shorter 62mm format requires.

 

286A Peak — Highest Absolute Peak Current in the Ultra Lineup to This Tier

Advanced electrode material formulation and the 34×96mm extended-format geometry deliver 286A of instantaneous peak burst current at 130C — the highest absolute peak current of any Ultra cell across all formats up to and including this capacity tier. 286A is 26A more than the 34×62mm 2,000mAh (260A), extending the peak current ceiling of the Ultra lineup as the format steps up to the 34×96mm footprint. For motor and ESC configurations requiring above 260A instantaneous current, the 2,200mAh is the entry point in this format that clears that requirement.

 

132A Continuous — Highest Sustained Output in the Ultra Lineup to This Tier

At 60C continuous from 2,200mAh, this cell delivers 132A of sustained output — the highest continuous current of any Ultra cell across all formats up to this tier, and the first Ultra cell to sustain above 130A continuously. The 34×62mm 2,000mAh established 120A continuous. The 2,200mAh extends this to 132A — a 10% increase in sustained output at the entry point of the 34×96mm format. For motor and ESC configurations sustaining draws above 120A during extended racing runs, the 2,200mAh is the entry point in the Ultra lineup that meets this requirement.

 

7.9mm — The Thinnest Cell in the 34×96mm Format

At 7.9mm, the 2,200mAh is the thinnest cell in the entire 34×96mm family — 1.0mm thinner than the 2,500mAh (8.9mm) and 2.8mm thinner than the 3,000mAh (10.7mm). For builds where the 34×96mm planar dimensions fit but bay depth is constrained below 8.9mm, the 2,200mAh is the only option in this format. There is no alternative at this depth in the 34×96mm family.

 

5g — The Smallest Weight Delta of Any Format Transition in the Ultra Lineup

At just 5g more than the 34×62mm 2,000mAh, the step to the 2,200mAh is the smallest weight addition of any format transition in the Ultra lineup’s progression from smaller to larger bays. For builders who have maximized the 34×62mm format and need more energy at minimum weight addition, the 2,200mAh provides 10% more energy, 2.8mm less thickness, and 26A more peak current for the smallest possible weight penalty across any format step in the lineup.

 

Same 34mm Width — Consistent Mounting Across the Entire 34-Series

The 34×96mm format shares the 34mm width with every 34×62mm cell — the 1,300mAh, 1,500mAh, and 2,000mAh. For platforms already using 34mm-width battery mounting hardware, straps, or frame bay walls, the 2,200mAh fits the same 34mm lateral dimension as the entire 34×62mm family. The only change is the 34mm extension in length. For builders designing or modifying frames that accommodate the 34-series, the consistent 34mm width simplifies mounting and hardware compatibility across the full format range.

 

Ceramic Separator and PVDF Electrode — Racing-Grade Construction

Industry-first ceramic separator and PVDF electrode construction deliver thermal resistance and structural integrity at the demanding output levels of competitive racing. The ceramic separator maintains safety under 286A peak events across the 34×96mm electrode area. The PVDF binder sustains electrode structural integrity under the combined stress of 132A continuous discharge and 286A peak events through the full 96mm electrode length, contributing to long cycle life and consistent performance across hundreds of high-rate charge-discharge cycles.

Format Transition: When to Step Up From the 34×62mm 2,000mAh

The 2,200mAh is the natural upgrade from the 34×62mm 2,000mAh when the platform has a 34×96mm bay available — or can accommodate the 34mm length extension — and more energy at a thinner profile is the priority. The trade is clear: 2.8mm less thickness, 10% more energy, 26A more peak current for 5g more weight and a bay that is 34mm longer. For larger racing platforms where the extended bay fits and battery weight has a proportionally smaller effect on handling, this is the most favourable format transition in the Ultra lineup on a per-gram basis.

 

Stepping Up From the 2,200mAh — Which Cell Next?

Both steps from the 2,200mAh within the 34×96mm family compared:

The 2,500mAh is the most weight-efficient next step. The 3,000mAh closes the format at its absolute performance ceiling. Both remain available in the same 34×96mm bay with no frame modification required.

 

Charging: 2C / 4.4A — Full Charge in ~30 Minutes

The 2C continuous charge rate delivers 4.4A input, fully charging the cell in approximately 30 minutes. Running multiple cells in rotation at 2C sustains back-to-back racing sessions at the entry energy level of the 34×96mm format without interruption.

 

Ideal Applications

Larger FPV racing drones — 130C / 286A peak in 55g at 7.9mm, the entry to the 34×96mm format with the thinnest profile and the highest peak current of any Ultra cell to this tier.

RC cars with longer standard battery trays — 286A peak and 132A continuous in the 34×96mm bay for high-current motor setups exceeding the 34×62mm 2,000mAh ceiling.

RC aircraft with longer fuselage battery channels — 34×96mm length suits extended fuselage routing at a 7.9mm thin profile, 2.8mm thinner than the 34×62mm 2,000mAh it steps up from.

RC boats with longer hull battery compartments — 132A continuous at the entry level of the 34×96mm format for the highest sustained motor loads at this tier.

34×62mm 2,000mAh upgrade builds — same 34mm width, 2.8mm thinner, 10% more energy, 26A more peak, for 5g more weight and a 34mm longer bay.

Depth-constrained 34×96mm builds — at 7.9mm, the only 34×96mm cell under 8.9mm for the tightest-depth bays in this format.

 

Product Summary

The Midlands Power 3.7V Ternary 2,200mAh opens the 34×96mm format as its thinnest, lightest entry — 7.9mm, 55g, 8.14Wh — with 2.8mm less thickness, 10% more energy, and 26A more peak current than the 34×62mm 2,000mAh it steps up from, at just 5g more weight. For builders transitioning into the 34×96mm bay, particularly those with depth constraints under 8.9mm, this is the only option in the format and the natural starting point for the extended 34-series architecture.
