Lipo batteries are fully charged when they reach 4 2v cell and their minimum safe charge as we will discuss in detail later is 3 0v cell.
3 cell lipo fully charged voltage.
For example almost all lithium polymer batteries are 3 7v or 4 2v batteries.
3 7v is pretty much in the middle and that is the nominal charge of the cell.
Ideally you never want to go below 3 2v per cell to maintain a healthy battery.
2 9v per cell and lower is causing permanent damage.
Up to c 1 rate up to 3 6 v then constant voltage at 3 6 v until i c 24.
And all of this adds up the more often you let your lipo battery sit around fully charged the worse it will get.
Cut off voltage the voltage at which a battery is considered discharged.
A battery sitting at 60 degrees celsius will lose 40 of its capacity in just 3 months.
Only if the charger has a switching converter can it charge from a lower voltage.
Depending on the design and chemistry of your lithium cell you may see them sold under different nominal voltages.
Since lipo batteries started becoming big in the rc hobby all sorts of processes and procedures for proper battery care have popped up.
The nominal voltage of 1 cell lipo batteries is 3 7 v.
Typically a full charge is 4 2v per cell.
A lipo cell nominal voltage is 3 7v.
So a linear 3 cell charged would need almost 13 v and that is excluding some voltage drop for the charging circuit.
This is the voltage you will find on battery labels.
Energy measured in wh watt hours the energy is the total amount of work that a battery can do.
Never trickle charge a lipo battery.

Never discharge a lipo battery below 3 0v per cell.
In practice at least 14 v would be needed.
According to one manufacturer lithium iron phosphate batteries in an electric car can be charged at a fast charging station to 80 within 15 minutes and 100 within 40 minutes.
A fully charged cell has a voltage of 4 1 to 4 3 v depends on the cell.
It is not however the full charge voltage of the cell.
A battery sitting at room temperature fully charged will loose about 20 of its capacity in a year.
Cycle life 1 cycle is when you charge and discharge a.
A fully charged lipo voltage is 4 2v per cell hv lipo can be charged to 4 35v.
The proper lipo storage voltage is 3 8v per cell.
The one i d like to talk about today is the process of always charging your lipo batteries to a storage charge voltage of 3 8v per cell before packing them away after a day of flying.
