Can you charge this Lipo with the
Turnigy Accucel-8 150W 7A Balancer/Charger?
Normally the JST-XH port is to balance the
lipo no to charge it.
To do it you've only to connect it to balance
ports?
|
|
|
| |

Sure can use that charger. To balance charge you will need to plug the JST-XH into the 3S balance port AND the - into the charger output with the Futaba power lead that comes with your charger. If you just want to charge only, plug only the - into charger output via connector.(not recommended, balance if you can) My Accucel 8 works sweet with this battery.

you can charge this lipo with you charger if your charger has a JST plug. This lipo has 1 JST plug for futaba tx, 1 plug for Sanwa tx and a third balance port for charging. So if your charger has a jst plug or the sanwa type plug...you could connect your charger to it and charge. For balance charging you would have to use the balance port on the lipo with the one on your charger.

This Turnigy 1450mah can't fit in DSX7/DX7 compartment. For DSX7, u need Flightmax 2500mah or Rhino 2620mah which sized around 100x28x23mm.

What kind of mah capacities are you guys getting from this battery so far?Mine doesn't seem to be living up to its rated 1450 mah rating when I cycle it down from a full charge.Hopefully it will improve with more charge cycles under its belt(so far only 2).Just curious to find out what others are experiencing as well with this battery.

Hello TurboBeaver,
I have counted 30 "discharges" on my pack by now, so way the "" ?, I don't make it rocket science, but I do count the number of times I've charged it. It go's something like this: I usually arrive at the field at 07:00 after all the preparation, I turn the Tx around 08:00 (HK t6) I leave it on up to 13:00 when I finish my last lipo for the plane, and the green light is still on! when I get home, I connect it to the Turnigy Accucell 6 and after about an hour it beeps "full" that's more then enough for me.

works well with only 5 minutes of work. Remove 4 backing screws from TX case. you will see where the battery tray is plugged into the tx circuit card. Remove that plug and mark which is the red wire end. Using a jewelers screw driver or thumb tack push in on the connectors in the plug and pull out the wires. Now do the same for the battery power plug and insert them into the transmitters plug. I added a dot of hot glue on the end of the connector to ensure the wires will not pull out. Now route your new wire through the back of the case and plug it in. There is enough slack in the cable to allow you to lift battery out and put it in a charge bag when you charge it, without having to disconnect it.

The wires on both discharges are 20AWG, but you really can go thinner if you like since the discharge rate is so low with a Tx.

Realy I am afraid of. Several times I have left my Tx turned on and Nimh battery discharged fully, but after charging it works again. I doubt I were so success if I were using Lipo. It could cause fire in house.
|
|
|
| |
|
Robachan
(83%)
No, it wouldn't cause a fire. It would just kill the lipo pack by overdischarging it. Fires are mainly caused by overcharging a lipo to too high a voltage, and sometimes when you pull too much power out too quickly (discharge too high C) or put too much power in too quickly (charge too high C). Leaving your Tx on would just bring down the voltage too low at a very slow rate, killing the lipo battery pack. So in one sense, you're right. Nimh batteries are recoverable in this case, whereas lipos are not, one advantage of Nimh batteries.

Thanks for the instructions, Taco. It was very easy to solder the lead onto my HK-T4A transmitter and there's even a hole in the battery bay to route the lead through. All that remained was to hot-glue the lead inside the chassis as a strain relief. Works fine. Lipo for less $$ than AA's, gotta love it.

To answer and earlier question: NEVER CHARGE THROUGH THE BATTERY PORT PLUG ON YOUR TX! Always pull the pack out of the TX to balance charge.Also, because these TX lipo packs have a low C rating, I have heard and have found myself that it is best to charge once the battery reaches 10.5v ** once it gets below this voltage, it drops like a rock!I use the Zippy Flightmax 2500 packs in my Futaba 7CAP and 9CAP and my friend uses one in his DX7 - they work great and last a whole season on a charge!

I installed this in a T6XAs and it would also fit in a T4YF (since the old NiCd went in that one).
No problems at all - even the 'Futaba' plug (the white one) fits without soldering. You won't even need to disconnect that plug for charging - just arrange for some space around your charger for the TX.

NO 9-12.6V regular lipo 8x1.5V=12V(alcaline) or 8x1.2V=9.6V(NIMH) Many people already use Lipo, including me, on their TX. This is just a new size.

No, as kaisar said, you can use 1,5v alcaline (8x1,5=12v) so 11,1 is perfectly suitable. I use lipo in my tx, always 3s(=11,1v) is much better, doen't discharge so quick when power is off, but it is recomended to unplug, because it could drop voltage and damage battery.

hi guys, don't worry about the voltage 11.1 V of a lipo battery for your Tx's, TX can handle 12.5 V easily, many RC folks use them without any problems. New and fresh alcaline cells AA have 1.5 V or even 1.6 V which brings total voltage for 8 AA batteries to 12 or even 12.6 V), it does not damage anything (some guys I believe use diodes in series to the positive lead to slightly drop the voltage but if you charge your TX lipos in 'storage' function or monitor voltage a bit you will have no trouble at all in getting voltage just perfect. I recently bought 2 Rhino 3 cells RX lipos here from HC and they fit perfectly in my DX7, no drop in voltage after browsing extensively through menus, lipos keep up voltage pretty good. And they will last a hell of lot longer than rechargeable AA's, which makes our job easier and more fun ! Just check TX voltage in your LCD screen or measure it every time before flying but guess we all do that already. Buy it and enjoy it to the max ! Happy flying guys.

HI helicopke, Just thought add my 2 cents worth some use the diodes so they dont discharge to low if they forget to watch the batt volt as we all know discharge to low you can have so bad things happen HK is the Best just like there customers!!! Keep Flyin!*)

Another way to look at it ,is the diodes drop the output, so when the Tx(cut off) sees the lower voltage and starts to beep the pack really is not at that voltage it is still at a safe level hope that makes more sense.Anyway cant wait till spring the weather here stinks. (ohio)

Eric Sorry I'am not familiar with that set up but what I can tell you is if the TX takes the 8 AA up&down side by side in a row (flat pak style)not square type it should fit it fits my FUT6ex TX with lots of room around it but is thick enough that it does not move Hope this helps ya keep'em flyin!!!

I think more important is that it discharges at 1C rate which is very safe for low-powered things like a TX. I've used almost the same Lipo for TX but with 8C - it made my TX warmer than I'm comfortable with!
