This document mainly introduces the safety use method of LiPo battery, including battery assembly, use and maintenance.
This document provides safety and handling instructions for Muchmore Lithium-Polymer (LiPo) batteries used in R/C electric devices. It emphasizes the differences between LiPo batteries and NiCd or NiMH batteries and outlines the importance of following specifications to prevent damage or fire.
The guide details two types of battery packs: those with a built-in Low-High voltage protector featuring a red 2-pin connector, and balancing packs with a white multi-wire connector. It includes specific warnings regarding charging currents, voltage limits, and the necessity of using compatible chargers and fireproof locations.
| Nominal voltage per cell | 3.7V |
|---|---|
| Minimum recommended discharge voltage | 2.8V |
| Maximum charge voltage per cell | 4.20V |
| Maximum charge current | 1C |
| Maximum charge voltage for protector circuit | 20V DC |
| Maximum cell temperature during charge | 60°C |
The maximum charge voltage per cell is 4.20V.
No, you must never charge a LiPo battery while it is inside the model.
You must use a charger specifically designed for LiPo batteries that can apply the constant current/constant voltage (cc/cv) charge technique.
Always charge a LiPo battery in a fireproof location, such as a metal container, ceramic tile, or a bucket of sand.
