  • Page 9 Storage LiPo batteries should be stored with a voltage of about 3,8V per cell. If the cell voltage falls below 3 V, then the battery must be necessarily charged. Deep discharge and storage in discharge status (cell voltage < 3V) make the battery useless. For transport and storage the LiPo batteries should be placed in a safety bag e.g.
  • Page 10  The charger and the battery to be charged must be placed on a non-combustible, heat-resistant and non-conducting surface during operation. Do not use the charger near easily flammable materials.  Always disconnect the charger from the power supply when it is not in use.
