Tx Lipo Battery.
Hi All, This may be a pretty dumb question but when using a lipo battery in a Tx do you have to treat them the same as the lipo batteries used in the car with regards to keeping them to a certain voltage level when not in use?
I race every other week so the Tx will not get used that much so would i have to storage charge the battery when not being used or are the batteries for the Tx handsets able to be charged and left untill they need charging again :confused: |
you should not leave a lipo charged for long periods as it degrades the lipo hence storage charging,
I would suggest looking for a LiFe battery for your tx as they are OK being left charged |
Definitely life.
My life battery has been fine for 2 years with virtually no care other than charging when flat. The lipo in a second hand tx is fit for the bin already, it's only a little over a year old. |
Unless you are very rigorous with looking after and managing your Lipos, I would also recommend LiFe rather than LiPo in a TX or RX.
I use LiPo but stick to three rules which - so far (ten years plus) - have meant I have not (yet) blown up my hands with the worlds most expensive fire-grenade...
But don't do as I do - go get a LiFe - much easier... |
Thanks for the reply's. I think a LiFe battery would would definitely be the best option for me.
