- Charging: Always use a LiPo-compatible charger. Never charge unattended. Charge on a non-flammable surface away from combustible materials.
- Storage: Store batteries in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Do not store fully charged or fully discharged for extended periods.
- Handling: Do not puncture, short-circuit, or disassemble the battery. Avoid physical impact. If the battery swells, leaks, or shows any damage, discontinue use immediately and dispose of it properly.
- Disposal: Dispose of damaged or depleted LiPo batteries according to local regulations. Never put them in household trash.
3. Charging Instructions
Use the provided USB charger wire or a compatible LiPo balance charger for optimal battery life and safety.
- Connect the USB charger wire to a suitable USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter).
- Connect the battery's balance lead (white connector) to the USB charger wire.
- Ensure the charging indicator on the charger shows proper charging status (refer to your charger's manual for specific indicators).
- Once charging is complete, disconnect the battery from the charger.
Note: The XT60 adapter is for connecting the battery to your RC vehicle, not for charging unless your charger specifically uses an XT60 input for charging.
