Charging, Conditioning, Replacing Batteries

  1. Always keep batteries in a fireproof bag when not actively in use

  2. Charge or discharge the battery to its storage voltage when not in use.

  3. Use slow charging or intelligent charging modes to charge the batteries whenever possible.

  4. Regularly clean the battery plugs to remove surface oxides to ensure good contact.

  5. It is recommended to use the charger provided by the drone manufacturer.

  6. Batteries are flammable and can explode. The storage location of the batteries should consider the following factors: fire sources, temperature, humidity, and dust. It is recommended to keep them in a battery safe bag (e.g. lipo-safe bag).

  7. Contact the manufacturer through our website () under the “Contact us” section to inquire for a new set of batteries.
