Revolectrix has a whole host of power calculators for not only their LiPo chargers but also a generic one as well. It can be a really handy tool to have so I thought Id share. Theyve also added a new one for the Dual PL8 charger (I totally want one!)

Ok my son crashed his rustler brushless at high speed, he snapped the chassis in two! He also damaged the lipo, the front of it is crushed. Is it still ok to use this battery in my other vehicles?
Hey Guys,
I am looking at storing my Lipo batteries in my basement RC room in one of the below small fire safes. Is this a good option? Thanks guys.

Hey guys ! i have a Duratrax onyx 5700 DTXC 1970, which i noticed to be slightly inflated after my last run ! i have 3.69 V in each cells. What should i do ? i didn't try to charge it yet ! i'm waiting your answers !
I have an older model Pede and it won't fit the hard case LiPo batteries that I have now. The reason is because of the rounded ribs in the bottom of the battery pocket. Do the grey chassis have those ribs too?

Hi guys
So i was driving my truggy on Saturday and it randomly cut out. I thought that i had burnt out the speed controller or something along these lines as there was no way the batteries were below the ESC safe voltage as if they were, then the speed controller reduces the power, allowing you...
I have the following charger and I'm a total noob when it comes to charging Lipos:

The question I have is when I'm charging my Duratrax Onyx 5000 mah 35c lipo battery is I have the balance block plugged in to my battery along with the...
My boys want to race their new 2wd slash trucks with brushed motors in the kids class at the indoor track. I am shopping for 2s LiPo's but I don't know what mah rating I would need. Is 5000 mah enough?
Also, can anyone suggest a good source with decent prices? It seems that a lot of online...
It looks like I'll be gone for a while and I'm trying to figure out how long I can store my lipos. My charger doesn't have a "storage" charge so I'll be manually charging them to the 40%. What's the longest I can let them sit for before they'll probably be bad?
Afternoon everyone. I would like to get LIPO receiver pack for my LOSI LST2 and my Savage. I already orderd a voltage regulator. These LIPO's can only be discharged to a certain voltage or you will damage the battery. My question is how do your monitor the voltage? An ESC has a LIPO cutoff...
Time for my Turnigy Mini SCT to find a new home. It's in good shape except the motor is making noise. It probably needs replaced but it still drives. Included is an HPI TF-20U 2.4ghz radio and receiver, a 1550mAh 30c LiPo battery and a bunch of spare parts.
Check the pics,every thing is...
I've got a Rhino 2250 3 cell 11.1 25c.
Since I have very little knowledge of Lipo batts, I don't know if I want to charge it. It feels like it's been filled with 30PSI of air pressure.
It's never been run through a full cycle, only a test for one of the helis.
What do you think?
So I am currently in class for my European certification for Dangerous Goods shipments, so I guess this may be why I noticed this listing. We all know the dangers of Lipos, even people who aren't in the hobby may have heard the stories of Lipo incidents lately. I also all remember when Lipos...
Man I went on a 2 1/2 week vacation and forgot to discharge my lipos. 2 were at over 8 volts the whole time...
I'm discharging now and gonna charge tomorrow for races...
Think they are alright? I mean one was 8.34 other was 8.3 so they should be fine yeah?

Running a 4s 14.8 lipo on a hobbywing 2700kv sc8 es8 on my buggy. First time experimenting wit electric and love it so far but, I'm only getting bout 10 min run time and I reckon my esc is shutting down due to low voltage. When I put it on the charger though its still reading 14.1v is that...
I got two SC10's today brushed and brushless both LiPo and both hall! I haven't ran it at a track cause I got them about an hour ago and have been messing around with them since. :)
