Stormbringer Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Hi and welcome to the forum Im guessing your using the usb or wall type charger that came with the car ? If you are that could be the problem as they usually dont allow you to storage charge the lipo so you end up storing them flat or fully charged which degrades the lipo Investing in a decent charger https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/skyrc-s65-ac-charger-65w-438918 Something like this will do the job and allow stori g of your lipo's at storage charge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glynnc Posted September 11, 2023 Author Share Posted September 11, 2023 Ok will it charge it faster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted September 11, 2023 Share Posted September 11, 2023 Yes it should as you charge at 1c so a 1000mah battery will charge at 1A or a 5000mah will charge at 5A Always ballance charge them before use and storage charge after finnished using them It might be to late for batteries you already have but it may help them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyarris Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 Can I ask for lipos, what would be the storage charge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 If you select storage charge on the charger it does it automatically If i remember right its 3.7 to 3.8 v per cell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
