Repairing a battery could be dangerous so from the outset you must assume this procedure has inherent risks that you must mitigate.

LIPO batteries are volatile and if damaged or punctured could catch fire. For that reason you should not perform this task indoors.

Have you ever wondered about the authenticity of the C rating applied to your shiny new battery pack?

LIPO batteries are found in just about every modern convenience these days and whilst we don’t pay much attention to them we really should. Proper care dramatically extends their usable lifespan and given batteries are so expensive its worth looking after them so that they give you reliable service for years to come.

What does a watt meter do and why should I buy do I need one?

Simply put, a watt meter measures the current draw on your electrical system and displays the results live (watts, amps and volts).

Safety is paramount. It’s definitely not something that you should neglect. The consequences of not taking safety seriously can be deadly and this has been the case on numerous occasions.

Commonly, the saying goes ‘you can never have too many batteries’ and for the most part, that is true.

Lithium polymer batteries or LIPO batteries as we describe them, are a member of the lithium-ion battery chemistry family.
