Title: Re: life battery Post by: dhruvafreak on February 10, 2014, 08:27:49 PM Nope . It can't be charged using a lipo charger .
Title: Re: life battery Post by: kiran rc on February 10, 2014, 08:33:38 PM Thanks another question is, can I insert life battery into transmitter and connect an ac to dc adapter to the transmitter to charge it.i have have heard that they are almost like nimh battery. ???
Title: Re: life battery Post by: dhruvafreak on February 10, 2014, 08:36:48 PM Not enought idea about that . But what transmitter you use ?
Title: Re: life battery Post by: kiran rc on February 10, 2014, 08:46:48 PM Rcb7x, with 12v output at adapter port
Title: Re: life battery Post by: dhruvafreak on February 10, 2014, 08:51:47 PM No Guess work . Lets hear from the experts.
Title: Re: life battery Post by: arun.sreelakam on February 10, 2014, 09:30:28 PM The life battery voltage is 9.9v and not 11.1v as a normal 3s lipo
So that each cell should be balanced to a 3.3v basic.. Whare a normal charger or a basic 2-3s lipo charger cannot provide such kind of balancing features.. Hence you need a programmable charger to do the job.. Another way is that you can use a 11.1v lipo as tx pack note: the c rating should be 1c to 8c for safety... Title: Re: life battery Post by: dhruvafreak on February 10, 2014, 09:35:20 PM But still recommended that use LiFe packs as they survives more .
Lipo dies faster . Once you forgot to switch off your transmitter and your lipo is gone Title: Re: life battery Post by: asupan on February 10, 2014, 09:42:50 PM KiranRc, Please charge the Life battery seperately using the correct LiFe charger. It should not be charged using the ac dc charger that comes with the transmitter.
