Post by: RAHUL QUADY on October 09, 2015, 03:57:22 PM

Hello guys,
Today I want learn about lipos.I used to have lipo battery,and I bought it from Rc hyderabad. It is not a branded one.It is a 2200mah 25C 3S lipo battery.I know very little about the information provided on the battery.
3S means there are 3cells in the battery, 2200mah is like a storage tank and 25C means the amount of charge present in the battery.I dont know weather my assumptions are correct or wrong.I think I need to learn more about the C rating,voltage,etc.And I even have a emax charger,I dont know how to use it exactly.I have motor and it can give 850g if I use 3S 25C battery.I want to know what happens if I use a 4S battery or 30C battery.I dont even know the meaning of discharging.
Now,I think my battery is damaged and I think I paid Rs 1,300 for it.I dont know what happened,when ever I connect it to a charger,it says "THERE IS AN ERROR" :banghead:.So Iam planning to buy a new turnigy battery but I couldnt find it anywhere in India.
So please helpme.... :(

I guess it depends a lot on how you treat the LiPo as well as its quality. Use a good charger, don't overcharge or over-discharge (follow the 80% rule). If you are not going to use the LiPo for a while keep it at storage voltage. You can keep an eye on the pack health by measuring its internal resistance.
