Batteries for Dummies

  1. Warnings

Please read the safety warnings for battery and charger before charging.

  1. All charge at the rate of (1C)
  2. Check the battery to verify correct number of cells in the pack 2S (2 Series) and Amps (i.e 1200Amh).
  3. Make sure not to deeply discharge the battery and make sure not to over charge either.
  4. Check condition before charging (i.e no leakage, wetness
  5. Never leave the battery unattended while charging or discharging and always charge the battery in the sack.
  1. Charging
  1. Connect the appropriate battery terminals (White connector (JST XH3)) to the charger then follow the charger settings to process. See picture for battery & charger connections.
  1. Follow the instructions below to setup the charger for the battery type. Warning makes sure that the right battery type is select in order to avoid any explosion or other harms.

1. Red button for selecting battery type or exiting/stopping from menu.

2. Blue for decreasing a selection or scrolling left.

3. Yellow for increasing a selection or scrolling right.

4. Green for starting a process or confirming selection. Program select

III. To start charging follow the instructions below


Press Enter (Green button) to start charging.

  1. Discharging
  1. *Probe the white connector to check the voltage on each cell before discharge the battery. If the voltage on each cell is 3V, the battery is already discharge.
  2. Connect the black head connector and the two terminal connectors to the charger
  1. Follow the instruction below to discharge.

Press the enter (Green) to start the process.

How to determine voltage on the batteries before charging/discharging.

The cell detector has the ability to detect the voltage on each individual cell in the pack.

  1. Connect the detector to the white connector following the picture. The 1st black cable goes to gnd, 2ndgoes to 1s and the 3rd (red cable) goes to 2s.
  2. This connection will tell how many batteries are in series and display the voltage for the cells on the digital display.
  3. Set the detector to go off (beep) whenever any of cells drop below 3.1V to avoid deep discharge.
  4. Connecting the detector to the battery during usage helps to regulate voltage drop or capacity.

Voltage: 1-6 series. Always check the battery specification to check how many cells are in series. Since the charge current limit is 5A make sure to select the appropriate current for your battery by checking the capacity. i.e 8200mAh. If you battery capacity is less than the charger max current make sure to low the charger current to match your battery’s capacity. Else if battery capacity is great than charger set the charger current limit to max but keep in mind it will take some time to charge.
