🔋 What’s the difference between 12s2p, 12s3p, and 12s4p batteries?Updated 4 months ago
We offer three battery configurations in our newer boards: 12s2p, 12s3p, and 12s4p.
Each has the same voltage (12s), but different capacity based on how many cells are connected in parallel (2p, 3p, or 4p).
The more ‘p’, the more range—but also more weight.
⚡ Quick Breakdown:
12s2p – Smallest Capacity
Lightest setup
Shortest range
Ideal for carving, short commutes
Found in: Stoke X
Also fits: Fusion, Diablo Bamboo, Renegade
12s3p – Medium Capacity
More range than 2p
Still lighter than 4p
Balanced for daily riding
Found in: Fusion
Also fits: Diablo Bamboo, Renegade
12s4p – Largest Capacity
Longest range
Heaviest setup
Ideal for long rides, steep terrain, or heavier riders
Found in: Diablo Carbon, Diablo Bamboo, Renegade
Does not fit: Fusion or Stoke X
🧰 Battery Swapping & Compatibility
All three battery sizes use the same mounting pattern, so in some cases, they can be swapped—but only if the deck physically fits the size.
Board | Compatible Batteries |
|---|---|
Stoke X | 12s2p only |
Fusion | 12s2p or 12s3p |
Diablo Bamboo | 12s2p, 12s3p, 12s4p |
Renegade | 12s2p, 12s3p, 12s4p |
Diablo Carbon | 12s4p only |
🛒 Want a different battery setup when purchasing?
Let us know before you buy and we’ll confirm if it’s possible to install a different battery on your board at the time of purchase. If it’s doable, we’ll send you a custom invoice.
✅ Summary
All three options run the same voltage—performance feels similar off the line.
What changes is range and weight.
If you’re not sure what fits your board, let us know your model and we’ll confirm compatibility.
If you want a non-standard battery installed when buying a board, we’ll check if it’s possible and set it up for you.
