The 8000mAh Lithium Battery Pack from Orange is a low-cost high power density lithium polymer battery that provides high performance with great reliability. These LiPo battery packs find great use in powering DIY drones, quadcopters, RC cars, and other DIY kits.
These Li-po batteries use the JST-XH style balance connector and the HXT 4mm type discharge connector. IR-matched cells are used in these LiPo batteries. They are equipped with heavy-duty discharge leads that are important to minimize resistance and sustain high current loads.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:
In order to maintain the efficiency and battery life of the LiPo batteries, avoid overcharging or over-discharging them.
LiPo batteries must not be kept near hot devices, surfaces, or substances. This can lead to severe damage and/or fire.
To avoid environmental damage, do not throw the Lithium Polymer batteries into water or fire.
LiPo batteries are generally safer and more environmentally friendly than other R/C batteries like NiCd and NiMH
2. CAN LIPO BATTERIES CATCH FIRE?
Yes, if they are not charged or used properly, they won't have peak performance for long, they can smoke and catch fire
3. WHAT ARE DO'S AND DONT'S OF LIPO BATTERY?
Do's
Don'ts
Disconnect your battery when not in use
Never use chargers that are not Li-Po- specific
Always store your LiPo batteries at room temperature
Never discharge a Li-Po battery beyond its critical minimum
voltage as it will cause permanent damage to the battery
Follow proper disposal protocols for disposing of the LiPo batteries
Never charge, discharge, use, or store a damaged or puffy LiPo battery
Ensure connectors are insulated correctly to prevent short circuit
4. HOW DO I KNOW IF MY LIPO BATTERY IS BAD?
LiPo batteries should last between 300 and 500 charge cycles depending on the usage of your drone, battery quality and how well you maintain them. If your batteries stop working well after only a few cycles, this means they could be damaged, defective or poor quality, and you should stop using them immediately
