Re: Worlds most dangerous battery
They do. I would guess there's enough electronics in the chargers to prevent this sort of thing. Now don't underestimate the power of an idiot to bypass the safety stuff though!

Re: Worlds most dangerous battery
Do they have different classes for LiPo powered cars? What charger do you use?
My charger will work with them, but don't have any for cars, just the occasional battery for some device that I've lost the charger for (like an older phone).

Re: Worlds most dangerous battery
theres a ton of chargers on the market for rc.. its knowing the settings to match the battery and how meany cells it has..
all though my post says use it should have said used... sold all but one nitro truck early last year
if your looking for a charger Dave i would find a good local RC shop and go in and talk to them.. lipo realy got started in planes then moved onto the car so any good hobby shop will be able to help ya out

Re: Worlds most dangerous battery
I have one, probably was in the middle of looking for a picture of one of my vehicles when you posted. Yeah, they don't tell you much in the instructions how to set it up. I do remember the 'timer knob' days before peak charger days, killed more than a couple of batteries back then, then the charger. I've even got the temp probe for the one I have now, no fires for me!

Re: Worlds most dangerous battery
most of the newest chargers have a feed back protection.. if the battery will not take a charge at a fastenough rate the charger will shut its self down..
the old school chargers with a knob style chargers will pump a charge till the timer runs out.. thouse were and are really unsafe and just hard on the battery
what are u needing to charge??

Re: Worlds most dangerous battery
nothing, I was just commenting on LiPo batteries and wondering what charger you used and if they have different racing classes for different batteries.
I've still got mostly NiCd, looks to me that NiMH is the newer cheap battery these days, but I'm sure if they make more Lithium one's the price will come down, unless they start using them more in cars, then the supply of smaller ones may be an issue.

Re: Worlds most dangerous battery
not a class for lipo only... usualy a class for the size of and or style of car.. then different class weather it is gas or electric..
