Associated hazards and risks

Deep discharge (< ~3.0 V/cell): leads to irreversible damage to the battery and loss of performance.

Overcharge (> ~4.2 V/cell): risk of swelling, fire or explosion.

Current above the 20 C rating if used intensively: may lead to overheating, internal stress of the cells, short circuits.

Impacts, punctures or mechanical deformations: compromised casings or insulations can cause internal defects or major hazards.

Extreme temperatures:

Above ~60 °C → risk of explosion or fire;

Below 0 °C → reduced performance and risk of damage if the battery is charged when cold.

Unattended charging: if you are not careful, a fire can break out; it is recommended to charge under supervision and, ideally, in a fireproof bag.

Improper storage: the battery is left connected when not in use, or completely discharged, or stored at inappropriate temperatures – all of which shorten its lifespan and increase the risk.

Safety recommendations

Use Li-Po chargers with a balancing function to keep each cell at equal voltage.

Disconnect the battery from the replica immediately after use to avoid parasitic consumption.

Charge the battery under supervision and in a fireproof bag (Li-Po bag), on a non-flammable surface.

Store it at storage voltage (~3.8 V per cell) if you will not use it for a few days, in a cool, dry place.

Inspect the battery periodically: if you notice swelling, deformation, overheating, unusual odor or other sign of damage, do not use it.
