Pirate Arms LiPo battery 7.4V 1100mAh 20C AK Type

Presentation

This Pirate Arms battery is a LiPo type composed of 3 cells making up a compact assembly. It has a voltage of 7.4V and a capacity of 1100mAh. The battery technology allows for very small dimensions of the entire assembly, making it suitable for mounting in spaces intended for very small batteries. The 20C discharge rate of the battery allows for optimal current supply for the power requirement of the replica.

The insulation of the battery is well made, and the cables and connectors are of high quality. This battery is equipped with a Small Tamiya plug.

WARNING:

• Lithium ion Polymer (LiPo) batteries can be extremely dangerous.
• Users must take all precautions for: potential fire, bodily harm, and damage to property.
• Improper use, damage, or manufacturing defects of LiPo batteries can result in explosions, fire, smoke, and risk of intoxication.
• By purchasing these batteries, users take responsibility for any risks associated with LiPo batteries.
• LiPo batteries are not toys and should not be left within the reach of children as they can pose a real danger to their health.
• LiPo batteries should not be thrown into fire, placed in an oven, or microwave as they can explode.
• LiPo batteries contain/emits electrolytes, toxic vapors, and other harmful chemicals. Handle these batteries with care and avoid any contact with skin, eyes, or other parts of the body. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek medical attention immediately.
• Do not attempt to charge mechanically or chemically damaged batteries.

Actions that lead to battery damage

• Charging LiPo batteries with unbalanced chargers without automatic charging stop.
• Connecting in series or parallel a cell or another battery even if they appear similar.
• Exceeding maximum and minimum operating voltages.
• A decrease or increase in temperature beyond permissible limits.
• Excessive charging current.
• Short-circuiting the battery terminals.
• Exposing the battery to mechanical shocks such as dropping, hitting, bending, cutting, twisting, deforming, or puncturing.
• Contact with liquids.
• Improvise an inappropriate charging setup.
• Using improper, improvised charging cables.

General Information

• LiPo batteries are composed of cells.
• The parameters of these batteries are: Voltage measured in Volts (V), Capacity measured in milliamp-hours (mAh), and instantaneous discharge (C).
• Each LiPo battery has a power plug and a charging plug connected.
• The power plug is used to power the intended device.
• The charging plug exclusively serves for charging the battery. (in some cases charging is done through both power and charging plugs)
• Charging the battery is done using the charging plug and in some advanced chargers, connecting the power plug is also required.
• LiPo batteries are charged with special chargers for LiPo batteries that have the function of balancing the voltage of each cell and automatically stopping the charging.
• Each LiPo battery has a maximum charging rate of 1.05X the battery capacity, which should not be exceeded during charging.
• Each cell has a maximum voltage of 4.2V and a minimum voltage of 2.7V.
• During use or charging, the battery temperature should not drop below 0°C or exceed 50°C.
• For long-term storage, the battery capacity should be between 15 and 25% of the maximum value.
