LITHIUM
POLYMER
Coming soon....NEW HIGH-OUTPUT Li-PO packs with BALANCING CONNECTORS.
Below is a selection of our exclusive line of high-performance LITHIUM POLYMER cells
& packs - available from
BATTERIES AMERICA.
These cells are for serious hobbyists, research/development, and technical
applications; great care & precautions must always be employed when working with
Li-POLY batteries. These cells have 'E-Z' Solder Tabs (for quick & secure soldering - no need for frail circuit boards!)
Superb for Slow-Flyers, Park Flyers, and even higher-speed models. Maximum voltage: 4.2v per cell.
Typically, 2 cells (7.4v) or 3 cells (11.1v) are required to produce a motor pack.
A 2-cell series assembly with a Voltage regulator (6V or 5.4V max) will produce a
lightweight, high-capacity receiver pack.
Discharge capability typically ranges from 3C to 10C (where C = cell or pack capacity,
expressed in MilliAmps).
There are many models to choose from - see specs below.

Additional notes: Lithium
Polymer cells require great care and precautions during handling and assembly;
they are not for beginners or inexperienced hobbyists & users. Our policy
is that ALL cells are warranted to have voltage upon delivery. There are
no other warranties or liabilities expressed or implied. All
responsibilities related to handling, storage, assembly, charging, and any other
exposures rest solely with the end-user. Once cells are assembled
together, they are not returnable. Unused cells, in original wrappings,
are returnable within 2 weeks of purchase only. Due to the nature of the
construction of Lithium Polymer cells, they are physically more delicate than
batteries in steel containers; therefore they are more to prone to adverse
effects, such as moisture, heat, puncturing, overcharging, excessive
discharging, dropping, etc. Furthermore, Li-POLY cells by nature do not
have the long storage shelf lives associated with Lithium Primary batteries;
they should be used within a few months of acquisition.
The smaller Li-PO cells
(
LP42030P6H & LP353048P4HHR)
of 200mAh - 300mAh capacity typically require special charging methods, such as
those provided by the CoolCharger A3. The QN-012BD and QN-012DC
chargers (the $19.95 ones) can ONLY be used with the 200mAh & 300mAh cells if they are arranged in 2-cell series
packs, and then linked 3 or 2 packs in parallel (via a custom charging adapter
harness). For the 200mAh Li-PO, three 7.4v packs linked in parallel creates a 7.4v
600mA arrangement; for the 300mAh Li-PO, twp 7.4v packs linked in parallel
creates a 7.4v 600mA arrangement also. These can be charged
successfully at the 600mAh rate. All other cells can be charged as individual
PACKS (2-cells in series).
Reminder: Never leave Li-PO batteries unattended while
charging.
