Lipo batteries are a popular 21st century electrical source. Used as model batteries, they provide energy for radio controlled cars, aircraft and boats of many kinds. Some people consider them to be prone to over heating and a fire risk. But when handled and used correctly, they are a safe and versatile means of powering many types of models, and Summer is the season to get the most enjoyment out of this hobby. More common than you might think, we use lipo batteries on a daily basis in phones, laptops, tablets and many other devices away from the radio controlled model scene.

High Power Lipo Batteries

Lipo batteries certainly pack a power punch by delivering as much as four times the amount of energy density compared to the equivalent nickel cadmium or nickel metal hydride batteries. Another unique characteristic is that the cells are malleable, so can be manufactured into a variety of dimensions. Being so versatile has made them the preferred battery where the power to weight ratio is critical to the performance of various miniature and scaled down vehicles.

Whether you are using, charging or storing lipo batteries, it is vital to follow all of the manufacturers advice and instructions relating to safety. Only charge and recharge with the correct type of battery charger. These batteries must not be overcharged, chargers for lipo batteries have in built safety features to stop this from happening.
