lipo storage
Hey all
I run my truck just about everyother day I have 2 lipos so I run one to where the truck shuts down than I go home recharge it and the next time out I use the other one following the same routine Is this an acceptable format for use and storage I use a thunder ac6 charger never leave them plugged in past fully charged alert, I charge them inside my house but never leave when charging so your opinions are appreciated thanks Russ |
If you're running them that often there is no need to storage charge them.You really only want to storage charge them if you're not using them for over a week.

If you're not running the voltage down too far, it would be better to just leave them until you got ready to run the next time - then charge one fully before you go running. Hyperion says to never store lipo fully charged -
"Storage - Lipo should never be stored fully charged, or with less than 50% of capacity remaining. We strongly recommend Hyperion EOS chargers, as they have automatic STORE functions to insure that the packs are in the range of about 60%~70% capacity (3.78V~3.92V resting voltage per cell). After returning home for the day, simply use STORE MODE to achieve this automatically. Batteries are best stored in a cool, dry environment (2~20 °C or 37~68 °F)." I'e changed the way I used to do things - I measure voltage when I get finished and if they are above 50%, I leave them alone til next time and recharge before I get ready to use one. |
