Extremely universal Lipo with very good performance. It is ideally suited to replace 9.6V NiMH universal type batteries and saves space and weight at the same time. This makes the battery extremely interesting wherever there is very little space.

Lithium-Polymer accumulator, short Lipo accumulators are much smaller and more powerful than conventional NiCd or NiMH accumulators. They can deliver high currents and have a comparatively very high storage capacity. This makes them perfect for use in tuned weapons, where the space for batteries would actually be very tight (eg M4 A1, MP5 A5 etc).
What are the dangers?
LiPo batteries unfortunately also have a downside: If used improperly, they can pose a danger to the device and the user. A LiPo battery should never be exposed to mechanical force or direct sunlight. If a LiPo is charged with a conventional charger for NiMH or NiCd batteries, a total loss is to be expected. Only special LiPo balancers may be used. If the LiPo battery is undercharged or overcharged, a loss of capacity or even a total loss is to be expected.
Technology
The LiPo consists like other battery packs of a certain number of cells. One cell has a voltage of 3.7 volts. What capacity and current flow a cell can provide depends on the model and manufacturer. Since the different cells have different capacities, a balancer cable is connected to each cell (the small connector). The balancer ensures that each cell is charged optimally during the charging process. It balances unevenly charged cells and prevents overcharging.
Liability
We cannot accept any liability for any damage caused. LiPo batteries will be damaged if they are overcharged or undercharged. Likewise, they must not be charged with other chargers under any circumstances. In the worst case LiPo batteries can catch fire or even explode, but this requires a blatant mishandling.
Use of LiPo batteries
LiPo batteries with 11.1 volts may only be used with heavily tuned AEGs as they are very demanding on the material. AEGs in original condition can be damaged very quickly as they are not nearly tuned for such high currents. No warranty or liability will be accepted for damaged AEGs.
