BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery
The BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery is a lightweight, high-performance battery designed for tiny whoop FPV drones, featuring a compact 280mAh capacity ideal for ultra-light builds. With its 95C discharge rate, it delivers strong, responsive power and stable voltage for smooth and precise flight performance. This battery is fully compatible with the Air65 II frame, making it perfect for your micro FPV setup.
BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery — Peak Performance in an Ultralight Package
The BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery is a 1S LiHV pack with a capacity of 280mAh, a 95C discharge rate and 1.06Wh of energy. It charges up to 4.35V, has a nominal voltage of 3.8V and a storage voltage of 3.85V. It weighs 6.8g, measures 54x10x6mm and has a BT2.0 connector. Compared with the previous LAVA 1S 260mAh 80C, it gives you 20mAh more capacity and 95C instead of 80C in practically the same size, while being 0.1g lighter. The Z-Folding cell process gives it low internal resistance and a higher, more stable voltage under load, for a strong punch and consistent throttle response. BetaFPV recommends it for the Air65 II, Meteor65 Pro O4, Air65, Meteor65 Pro and Cetus whoops. Available as a single pack or a pack of 5.
LAVA 1S Battery vs. LAVA II 1S Battery
Through a core material upgrade, the BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery reaches a 95C discharge rate instead of the 80C of the previous LAVA 1S 260mAh, delivering more available power and a higher, more stable discharge voltage for consistent performance during aggressive flight manoeuvres.

Z-Folding Process
Thanks to the Z-Folding process, the BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery achieves a 5% higher energy density than traditional wound cells. Low internal resistance allows efficient high-current discharge and a 0.2V higher voltage under load, while the precise layer folding also significantly extends the cycle life of the battery.
BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery Key Features
- More Power - 95C instead of the 80C of the previous LAVA 1S 260mAh, so the battery keeps up with sudden throttle punches and keeps the flight stable.
- More Capacity, Less Weight - 280mAh instead of 260mAh at 6.8g instead of 6.9g, so you fly longer in an ultralight build.
- BT2.0 Connector - The BT2.0 plug fits the BetaFPV whoops the battery is made for, such as the Air65 II and Meteor65 Pro.
- Z-Folding Technology - 5% higher energy density and a significantly longer cycle life than traditional wound cells, so the pack serves you longer.
- Iconic Design - The new green and yellow livery makes LAVA II packs easy to recognise among your batteries.
BetaFPV LAVA II 280mAh 1S 95C LiHV Battery Suitable Applications
BetaFPV recommends this battery for the following whoops:
Recommended Parts
- Before use, the battery must be fully charged.
- Only use a charger designed for lithium-polymer/lithium-ion batteries and never leave the battery unattended during the charging process.
- When charging, always keep the battery away from flammable and explosive materials.
- Never overcharge the battery. The maximum voltage for a LiPo battery is 4.2V per cell, and for a LiHV battery, it is 4.35V per cell.
- Never discharge the battery below 3V per cell under load.
- Fully charged batteries should not be stored for more than 3 days. For long-term storage, maintain a voltage between 3.8V and 3.9V.
- Do not disassemble, crush, short-circuit, or expose to flames or other ignition sources.
- Do not use batteries that are deformed or swollen.
