     LiPo 11,1V 2800mAh 25C battery

The lithium-ion-polymer
(LiPo) battery packs are the successors of the known lithium-ion (LiIon)
battery packs. The basic advantage of the LiPo batteries is undoubtedly the
capacity to dimensions ratio. They are very small sized while simultaneously
being very energy efficient, what allows to chose a proper battery pack for practically
every AEG replica. It does not have the memory effect.  The batteries can be loaded very often
without being discharged before. A frequent charging is very beneficial for
this kind of batteries.

You need to remember not to discharge the LiPo battery under the level of 3V per cell and no to overcharge it above 4,2V per cell. Another advantage
of the LiPo battery pack is a small percent of self discharge.  A not used battery pack will lose only 3 % to
5 % of its energy. You need to check on the battery pack because if you store
the battery pack for a long period of time the battery pack may discharge  under the minimum value ( 3V per cell ) and,
therefore, lead to irreversible chemical reactions which may cause a worsen the
features of the battery pack including its permanent damage and, in extreme
cases, self-ignition. A not used LiPo battery pack should be charged in about
70 %.

While using the LiPo
battery packs properly its lifespan should be about 500 to 700 cycles.  The operating temperature of the LiPo battery
packs is very vital. In contrary to the ordinary battery packs, the LiPo cell
handle quite well in low temperatures. Nevertheless, they should be charged in
room temperature. In order to keep the LiPo battery packs in good shape you should
balance them during the charging process with the use of a service plug that
most of the LiPo battery packs are equipped with ( a good LiPo charger has got
a inbuilt balancer ).
