VB Power LiPo 7.4V 1300mAh 20C AK Type battery

Presentation

This VB Power battery is a LiPo type and is composed of 2 cells that make up a compact assembly. It has a voltage of 7.4V and a capacity of 1300mAh. The battery technology allows very small dimensions of the whole assembly, thus fitting in spaces designed for very small batteries. The discharge rate of 25C provides optimal current supply for the replica's power requirements.

The insulation of the battery is well made, and the cables and connectors are of high quality. This battery is equipped with a Mini Tamiya connector.

WARNING:

• Lithium-ion Polymer (LiPo) batteries can be extremely dangerous.
• Users must take all precautions for potential fire, bodily harm, and damage to property.
• In case of improper use, damage, or manufacturing defects, LiPo batteries can lead to explosions, fire, smoke, and the risk of intoxication.
• By purchasing this type of battery, the user assumes responsibility for any risks associated with LiPo batteries.
• LiPo batteries are not toys and should not be left within reach of children as they can pose a real health hazard.
• Do not throw LiPo batteries into fire, place them in the oven, or microwave as they can explode.
• LiPo batteries contain/emits electrolytes, toxic vapors, and other harmful chemicals. Handle these batteries with care and avoid any contact with skin, eyes, or other parts of the body. In case of contact, rinse with plenty of water and seek medical attention immediately.
• Do not try to charge mechanically or chemically damaged batteries.

Actions Leading to Battery Damage

• Charging LiPo batteries with an unbalanced charger without automatic charging stop.
• Connecting in series or parallel a cell or another battery even if they appear to be similar.
• Exceeding the maximum and minimum operating voltages.
• A decrease or increase in temperature beyond permissible limits.
• Too high charging current.
• Short-circuiting the battery terminals.
• Exposure of the battery to mechanical shocks such as dropping, hitting, bending, cutting, twisting, deforming, or drilling.
• Contact with liquids.
• Improper setup of a charging installation.
• Use of inappropriate or makeshift charging cables.

General Information

• LiPo batteries are composed of cells.
• The parameters of these batteries are: Voltage measured in Volts (V), Capacity measured in milliampere-hours (mAh), and instantaneous discharge (C).
• Each LiPo battery has a power socket and a charging socket connected.
• The power socket is used to power the device for which it is designed.
• The charging socket is exclusively used for charging the battery. (in some cases, charging can be done through both the power socket and the charging socket)
• Charging the battery is done using the charging socket, and in some advanced chargers, it is necessary to also connect the power socket.
• LiPo batteries are charged with special chargers for LiPo batteries with the function of balancing the voltage of each cell and automatic charging stop.
• Each LiPo battery has a maximum charging rate of 1.05X the battery capacity, which should not be exceeded during charging.
• Each cell has a maximum voltage of 4.2V and a minimum voltage of 2.7V.
• During operation or charging, the battery temperature should not drop below 0°C or rise above 50°C.
• For long-term storage, the battery capacity should be between 15-25% of the maximum value.
