Description
Model AS-A6A5PO – 3.8V 30Ah 12C High-Rate Long-Cycle Drone Battery Cell
Voltage: 3.8V | Capacity: 30Ah (114Wh) | Discharge: 12C Continuous / 15C Peak | Cycle Life: 1000 cycles | Weight: 510g
The AS-A6A5PO is a 3.8V 30Ah high-rate long-cycle drone battery cell engineered for commercial and industrial UAV platforms that demand both extreme power output and exceptional service life. Delivering 12C continuous discharge (360A) and 15C peak discharge (450A), this cell provides the sustained high current needed for heavy-lift operations, agricultural spraying, and large professional multirotors.
What sets the AS-A6A5PO apart is its remarkable 1000-cycle lifespan — unprecedented for a 12C high-rate cell — dramatically reducing the total cost of ownership for commercial drone fleets. With an ultra-low internal resistance of ≤0.8mΩ and wide 35mm tabs, it minimizes voltage sag and heat generation even under maximum load. It also supports 6C fast charging (180A) for rapid mission turnaround. Rated for operation across -20°C to +60°C, this cell is ideal for building custom high-rate drone packs for agricultural spraying, heavy-lift cargo, large survey, firefighting, and public safety platforms.

12C High-Rate + 1000 Cycles: The Best of Both Worlds
Most high-rate drone cells sacrifice cycle life for power — typically lasting only 300~500 cycles. The AS-A6A5PO delivers 12C continuous (360A) discharge while achieving an exceptional 1000 cycles — doubling the service life of comparable high-rate cells. For commercial drone fleets, this means 50% lower battery cost per flight hour.
| Standard High-Rate Cell | 10C~15C | 300~500 cycles |
| AS-A675H5 High-Rate | 15C | 500 cycles |
| AS-A6A5PO High-Rate Long-Cycle | 12C | 1000 cycles (2x lifespan) |
