It is important to bear in mind that high G-forces and severe vibration can occur in our models. This means that the mounting surface has to be capable of withstanding several times the weight of the battery. The three-point arran- gement of the mounting frame’s retaining screws allows the PowerPak to be installed on surfaces which are not absolutely flat.
reas the ECO version is designed to be charged using an external LiIon / LiPo charger. Both versions feature integral balance circuits which ensure that individual cells are not overcharged, as even Li-Ion cells are extremely vulnerable to this state. Unbalanced cells can drift apart in condition, leading to loss of capacity; accurate balancing also effectively eliminates this danger.

CAUTION: It is absolutely essential to set the correct final charge vol- tage (cut-off voltage)! If you charge these batteries with the cut-off voltage set too high, the result could be a fire! PowerPak x2 batteries are charged at a nominal voltage of 7.4 V, correspon- ding to a final charge voltage of 8.4 V.
3. CELL CARE The useful life of PowerPaks can be extended significantly by handling them correctly; this also enhances the safety of the cells. The self-discharge circuit built into earlier PRO versions is to be discontinued as of Winter 2018; the new version can be identified by a yellow dot on the underside.
5. CELL EXCHANGE, SERVICE If, after a period of a several years, the cells in a PowerPak are exhausted, we offer an economical cell exchange service combined with a check of the elec- tronics. Simply send the PowerPak to our Service address (site 11). All PowerPaks have passed rigorous testing to gain certification in accor- dance with UN38.3, and the manufacturing process is monitored by the quality management team.
