Lithium Polymer Charging/Discharging Instructions & Safety Information

Connection: You must be sure that the correct polarity is observed when connecting battery packs to charger or your electronics.

RED = POSITIVE (+)
BLACK = NEGATIVE (-)

Charging/Discharging: Charge your lipo battery pack at 5C or less on a lipo approved charger only. If you choose to charge at any rate higher than 1C
you must use a balance charging system otherwise you risk pack becoming severely out of balance over time, which in turn will significantly decrease the life span.

Example: If charging a 4000mah lipo pack at 1C, you would be charging it at 4 Amps.
: If balance charging a 4000mah lipo pack at 5C, you would be charging it at 20 Amps.

Do NOT charge your lipo packs on a NIMH/NICD charger. Your charger must be designed for lipo cells. Do not charge above 4.2V per cell, or over a discharge rate of 3V
per cell. Never leave lipo packs unattended during charging. Don’t leave the battery pack plugged into your craft while not in use. The pack can still discharge to an unsafe
Level and damage the pack even if all components are turned off.

It is dangerous to draw more power than what the pack is rated for. This could cause your battery pack to ignite into flames. . The temperature of the pack should never
exceed 140 degrees. If it does, you may need a pack that can handle more surge watts.. C rating.

Storage: If you don’t plan on using your lipo pack for longer than a week, store it at 50-60% of the pack’s rated capacity. Make sure to cycle and/or balance
your packs at least once per month since leaving them on the shelf for a prolonged period of time can cause damage to the packs.
