This is a no no with Lipo batteries, if the voltage falls below certain level they will not charge up again, so you have to be careful not to let this happen.

On the plus side, to charge a Lipo battery usually does not take more than 30 min., and the starter box weights a lot less.
cota good stuff buddy!!! this maybe rude but one thing i never lend out is my start boxes...they are set up perfectly for my bug/trug and unless a guy is running a OCM they will not work for them...
