2. Safety Instructions

Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are powerful and require careful handling. Failure to follow these safety instructions can result in fire, personal injury, and property damage. Always prioritize safety when using LiPo batteries.

General Safety Precautions:

• Do not throw the battery into fire!
• Never leave a charging battery unattended.
• Always charge LiPo batteries on a fire-resistant surface, away from flammable materials.
• Use only a LiPo-compatible charger with a balance function. Ensure the charger settings match the battery's cell count (3S) and capacity (2300mAh).
• Do not overcharge or over-discharge the battery. The voltage per cell should not exceed 4.2V (fully charged) or drop below 3.0V (discharged).
• Inspect the battery for any damage (swelling, punctures, frayed wires) before each use. Do not use a damaged battery.
• Avoid short-circuiting the battery terminals.
• Keep batteries out of reach of children and pets.
• Store batteries in a cool, dry place, ideally in a LiPo-safe bag or container, at a storage voltage of approximately 3.8V per cell.
• Do not expose batteries to direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
• If the battery becomes hot during charging or use, disconnect it immediately and place it in a safe, fire-resistant area.

3. Setup

Initial Inspection:

1. Upon receiving your TATTU LiPo battery, carefully inspect the packaging and the battery itself for any signs of damage.
2. Check the main power leads (XT60) and the balance lead (JST-XHR) for secure connections and no visible damage.
3. Ensure the battery casing is intact and there is no swelling or punctures.

First Charge:

1. Connect the battery's main XT60 plug to your LiPo charger's output.
2. Connect the battery's JST-XHR balance lead to the charger's balance port.
3. Set your charger to the LiPo balance charge mode. Configure the settings for a 3S (11.1V) battery with a capacity of 2300mAh.
4. It is recommended to charge at a rate of 1C (1 times the capacity), which for this battery is 2.3 Amps.
5. Begin the charging process and monitor the battery closely. The charger will automatically stop when the battery is fully charged.

4. Operating

Connecting the Battery:

1. Ensure your RC model's power system is compatible with an 11.1V (3S) LiPo battery and an XT60 connector.
2. Carefully connect the XT60 plug of the battery to the corresponding connector on your RC model. Ensure a firm connection.
3. Secure the battery within your model to prevent movement during operation.

During Use:

• Monitor the battery voltage during operation, especially if your model does not have a low-voltage cutoff.
• Avoid discharging the battery below 3.0V per cell (9.0V for a 3S battery) to prevent irreversible damage.
• If you notice a significant drop in performance or the battery becomes excessively hot, stop operation immediately.

5. Maintenance

After Use:

1. Disconnect the battery from your RC model.
2. Allow the battery to cool down before recharging or storing.
3. Check the battery for any physical damage or swelling.

Storage:

• For short-term storage (a few days), ensure the battery is at a storage voltage of 3.8V per cell (11.4V for a 3S battery). Most LiPo chargers have a 'storage charge' function.
• For long-term storage (weeks or months), store the battery at 3.8V per cell in a cool, dry environment, ideally in a LiPo-safe bag or container.
• Never store a fully charged or fully discharged LiPo battery for extended periods, as this can significantly reduce its lifespan.

6. Troubleshooting

Common Issues and Solutions:

• Battery not charging:
  • Ensure all connections (main and balance leads) are secure.
  • Verify charger settings match the battery's specifications (3S, 2300mAh).
  • Check for any damage to the battery or charger.
• Reduced run time or power:
  • The battery may be aging. LiPo batteries have a limited cycle life (typically >300 cycles).
  • Ensure the battery is fully charged and balanced before use.
  • Check for proper storage conditions.
• Battery swelling:
  • Swelling indicates internal damage, often due to overcharging, over-discharging, or physical impact.
  • Immediately discontinue use of a swollen battery. Place it in a fire-safe container and dispose of it properly according to local regulations. Do not attempt to charge or use it.
• Battery gets hot during use:
  • This can indicate excessive current draw from your RC model or an internal issue with the battery.
  • Ensure your model's motor and ESC are appropriately sized for the battery.
  • If the battery consistently gets hot, it may be damaged or unsuitable for the application.
