Lipo Chargers

Never Charge a lipo with a charger that is not made for lipos. Never charge over the rate suggested by the manufacturer. If possible charge at a lower rate it will add life to your pack. Lipos like constant voltage and current while charging so avoid voltage or current spikes while charging. If you use your car battery to charge while at the field. Do not start you car while charging.

 Lipo Safety/Use Info Please see our disclaimer, guarantee, and a few suggestions here

Wiring diagram for our standard balance connector can be found here and are compatible with the balance chargers on this page with the common Align balance plug.

Until you are willing to follow all safety precautions, DO NOT use lithium batteries.

Lithium Polymer batteries were designed for mobile devices and not for R/C use. Although some manufactures now see the R/C market as a good viable market. In general Lithium polymer technology was not originally intended for high rate use as in R/C applications. Therefore, the technology of Lithium Polymer batteries in radio-controlled models is to be considered experimental (not just ours all of them). Our cells come from a factory whom makes cells specifically for R/C use. But please follow all guidelines and precautions that are set for lithium polymer batteries. The R/C hobby is fun, it can be a daily escape, relaxing, and offer extreme thrills. The last thing we want is someone to be injured, or suffer property damage from their hobby.

We suggest you follow AMA safety precautions with any Lipo battery. Since we cannot guarantee customers will follow the proper safety precautions and use an appropriate well functioning charger with the correct settings, therefore, Mile High RC, it's agents, distributors, employees, associates, etc..  assume no responsibility for the use of Lithium Polymer battery products by our customers. Your purchase and use of this product means you accept our terms and you are fully responsible for any consequences of your use. That being said we do guarantee or packs to be free from defects of parts and or faulty workmanship.

So far with the ESL cells the only cause of pack failure has been shorting while installing a connector, or not having the pack connected properly (exposed wires). Please learn from past customers & personal experience. Do not expose the wires on both leads at the same time. Trim one wire attach to connector, cover, then work on the second lead. If you decide to use bullet type connectors (not recommended) we suggest making one lead shorter then the other. This limits the chance of  +/- coming in contact. If you need any help or would like suggestions feel free to drop us a line.
