I was about to enroll in a university majoring in Electrical Engineering so I could learn how to charge my batteries without burning down the neighborhood but this video saved me so much money! Thank you!
I'm brand spankin new to Lipo batteries and the current state of RC cars. This video is the perfect companion to help get me on track with everything. Thank you very much. Really appreciate all the time and effort you put into making this video (even with all the jokes and soundbites.)
I've watched loads of lipo charger videos but this is by far the most detailed and informative video and covers every aspect about lipo batteries. Well done guys, really appreciate the work that you've put into this tutorial.
@@crazyhobbies4695 with regard to the mAh and the weight of the lipo etc. would a lower S with a higher mAh have more weight than a battery of higher S? I am very close to being able to afford an Xmaxx and have been looking into lipos and chargers. Im in Qld and the local hobby shop has a 4s 14.8v lipo with 9000mAh, Would this have more weight than the 7000mAh 6s lipo in the video? (I know that 2x4s lipos is best for the Xmaxx I was just asking specifically about the weight). Also to slow down how quick the esc and motor heats up what options are there as far as cooling fans for each of these electric components?
Another compliment on this video after watching numerous other lipo battery videos! What I notice is that other videos push getting a proper number for each specification, yet I still walk away with questions. This video does a GREAT job of isolating each number, before moving on to the next so I don't get re-confused all over again. Thanks!
Best video so far I've seen about LIPO batteries. I was so confused before watching this video and I feel 100% more confident now in what I am doing and understanding how these chargers and batteries work. Awesome awesome job sir!!
Newbie here and this perfectly explained everything. I especially appreciate the instructions on how to store the battery by charging it for 10 to 15 minutes versus putting it in storage mode if your not putting it away for 6 months or longer. Good info.
Hello there man 🙋🏻♂️ What a great and good explaining about the topic. I can't thank you enough man 💁🏻♂️ but really, this is BY far the best ☝🏽charger /lipo battery and so forth and so forth video there is!!! 🤭 One thing do haha... How to discharge the / my lipo, after a full one and not using it for a while. Or is that automatically when you're do the storries one? Sorry for the language, I'm from the Netherlands 💁🏻♂️ so... Thanks for what you are doing for us, thank you man. Gr Massimo
Thank you very much for making this video! It's very clear, and I mean VERY clear! I just got my first charger in today, after spending the last five years charging my 2s batteries with the help of a trickle charger... Yeah, seriously! Whenever me and my son wanna go out with the cars, I needed to start charging like 2 days before the bash session, because I needed to charge 8 5000 mah batteries. Also, the storage mode is something that gives me a LOT more peace of mind, because I never used a storage mode. Just as an addition; I have bought myself an ammo box to store the batteries in. The bags are used when charging AND the charging is done OUTside of the house. I really enjoyed the video and learned quite a lot. Thanks again!
Jumped online after failing to understand the instruction manual that came with the charger heh.. Cheers for making this video! Was very easy for me to follow and understand.
Great battery lesson Crazy Master 👌 Even Mrs Outback watched it intently and now knows everything about batteries & chargers now 🤓 I'm already in trouble for not storing our batteries correctly! 🤪. I'm definitely grabbing a couple of your multi plugs next visit!. A huuuuge thanks to you & your Crazy Legends for the fun & entertainment & for looking after us when we visited your store recently, we had the best time & went home with some awesome goodies!. Keep up the great work Crazy family & God bless 👍🦘🇦🇺
Great video I have just got my 1st lipo and reading the instructions that came with the lipo and the instruction with my charger your video makes more sense very detailed information that you put in the video has taken away the fear that I had so thank you.
I’m a complete newbie to electric rc and this video is a bloody godsend. Had no idea about lipos and chargers and this helped maintain my sanity with it all. Cheers
Spot on Bloakes! No rambling on, but hit all the key points! Just getting back into RC with the grandbabies....a lot has changed since 1992 lol! Thank you for taking the time to extend a hand up! I will refer to your site with any future questions!!
I have a friend who likes to get all scientific and technical when it comes to his batteries… honestly.. this video proves that getting the most out of your lipos and caring for them isn’t complicated..
Great video and another important tip is that while charging, if you press the left arrow (or DEC in many similar chargers) you can see the target end voltage so you know how far or close you are to finish.
WOW, just wow! What an easy to follow but better yet easy video to finally understand. I _almost_ didn't watch when I saw how long it was but I am *so* glad I did! Not joking, every single question I had was answered. It' like you looked into my brain and plucked out the exact things I was lost on. I picked up a charger based on a recommendation but wasn't sure how to use it (the manual was useless and the other YT videos I've watched didn't help me understand). I've had the charger and batteries for 9 months and I haven't used them. I knew the batteries were in storage mode so I haven't touched them. The RC truck has been sitting in a box for 9 months. Seriously. I was afraid I was going to burn my house down. In your video, you said they are all the same - while I have a different charger than what you showed, the screens were almost identical and I was able to follow along finally able to *_safely_* charge my batteries now. I also know and understand how to put the batteries in storage mode, and how to keep them from fainting... and so much more. To say "thank you" doesn't do this video justice but I'll say it anyway, thank you, truly. I really enjoyed driving my new truck around yesterday.
You ROCK! Thank you for clearing up all the confusion I had on setting up my charger, I don't have the same brand you're using, but the setup was the same. BRAVO! My friend 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thank you for putting the time into this video.. I have an old Traxxas Rustler Vxl, 2wd.. It's been sitting on a shelf, for a long time.. Got rid of all my old batteries, and ordered new one's.. Haven't actually tried the whole Lipo aspect, but gonna try it out now... Appreciate the info.. Again, thank you for giving me a better understanding of how they work, and what I need to look out for.. Two thumbs up... Just saying!!!
This video is outstanding I was totally confused on how to charge my lipo batteries and how they work. Now I'm totally confident that I can charge my lipo batteries safely. Thank you so much for the information on this video!
I don't know what type of duct tapes made from down under but most tapes that I've ever seen in my life are conducted but outside of that your advice seemed very good for most people.
This is BY FAR the best video there is regarding RC battery facts, recommendations and information in general. I cannot understand those people that put thumbs down to this. Absolute congratulations for this video guys! And my thanks for sharing this information in such a professional yet easy and clear way.
By far the best video / explanation on lipo charging & maintenance, hands down. The video was straight and to the point, nothing less nothing more. Thank You
I’m a starter messed up on the charger order cause I never knew what’s the best once the it arrives I will buy this definitely looking forward subscriber granted thank you
mate, you are a legend, had no clue what i was doing beforehand and what setting to charge my zee battery. you have explained it clearly for an idiot like me to understand. thankyou
This video helped me loads.. I'm new to the hobby.. and been charging my batteries wrong all along 😮.. got a 6s car.. and my two 3s..5500 was lasting 10 mins.. now I know why lol
Hello to you all at crazy hobbies I am peter from Birmingham uk and I have just literally in the past 3 weeks got back into rc cars after a very long break away. I've always been nitro but found a bargain on face book a kyosho DBX 2.0 VE and its the first time I've ever had lipo powered cars and thanks to this brilliant video I can safely say I know how to charge use and store by lipos safely thanks to your video. Have subscribed and liked more videos like this please. Peter Birmingham uk
Well done. Getting back into RC from the bygone 72mHz/NiCad days and have a lot to learn. I've found a lot of this information, but this is most of it, all in one package. Thanks from the States!
“When you charge your battery... you’re actually putting chemicals inside your battery”. 🤔 the rest of the video was spot on - Really helpful. But this statement right here, I just can’t let it slide 😂 😂 😂
We should pay for this video, it answered my doubts why my 4s lipo batteries got pumped after playing, 1. I have drained the batteries after my baja electric became slower. 2. I was charging using fast chg option
Hey guys! I have a quick question:What do i do when in didn't drain my lipo completely? I have a scx24 with 350mAh 2S 30C Lipo and i use it from time to time for let's say 10 to 15 minutes. I also got a traxxas trx4 sport with a gens ace 5000 2S 50C lipo delivered today. This was a great video because I'm an absolute newbie and i got a lot of informations out of it. Thanks in advance!🤘🏼
Great video. You covered a lot of the basics. Only, one little thing. You do not need to balance charge every time. Maybe do a balance charge every 3rd or 4th battery use. Balance charging takes longer to charge.
Thank you sooo much for making this video mate, it really helped me as just bought a Arrma Notorious and wasn't sure about the LiPo batteries or how to charge them. Really appreciate you taking the time to make it, it made me understand exactly what I need to do:)
Awesome vid mate thanks! Maybe i missed it but how to charge the 'shorty' hardcase lipo's with the banana t-plugs, first time that i've used those batteries. Greetz from the Netherlands
Such a useful video! As an airsoft player new to using Lipos I now feel a lot more confident and have much more knowledge of what everything means after watching this! 😀
cheers for the info just purchased a charger e680, a Lipo 7.4v battery and adaptor charge cable for my 7.2v brushed Maverick Quantum, More speed more time
Great article thanks. I have one question, why should it make a difference if you charge on actual charge or balance if you are plugged into a balance board?
Appreciate you sharing, I’d like having more info on safety for the Lipo,s this is pretty well much how I take care of my Batteries, appreciate your radios and I’ll be watching more, I did subscribe
I know this video is old, but it's good, and I'm glad I watched it....BUT, I have a question I think might be important, if anyone happens to read this comment and knows the answer, please reply, ok? So my question is: If I have lipos in the "hard case" style, will I still be able to tell if they're about to flame out, in time? This slightly worries me, I gotta confess. Can you tell if they're starting to puff? I know lipos often make ticking or clicking sounds when they're about to go, or sometimes get a sweet-ish, fruity smell coming out; if they're sealed, will I be able to smell it? Most of my lipos are much smaller 1S and 2S for micro quads, whoops, and smaller helis, but I've gotten into larger basher truggy or truck type vehicles, which all use the much bigger, higher 'S' rating batteries, all of which are hard case for protection during crazy jumps and crashes. Anyway, if anyone know, please let me know! Thanks, and thanks to Crazy Hobbies for the excellent useful video!

Dude, You are awesome. Thank you for posting this video. I've watched so many tutorials and they suck at explaining.
Most definitely the best video I've ever seen on this topic. Clear, concise and very easy to understand. All the others just bamboozle you. Thank you!
This video is exactly what I've been looking for for the past 2hrs. Thank you sir. You broke it all down simple and easy. Everything.
It's no where near as complicated as people make it seem .. you do a great job at breaking it all down 🙏 thanks
Omg I watched like 20 videos and this one is the only one that explains the numbers instead of recording putting in random numbers
Best video so far I've seen about LIPO batteries. I was so confused before watching this video and I feel 100% more confident now in what I am doing and understanding how these chargers and batteries work. Awesome awesome job sir!!
Best video on youtube for lipos and charging, explains things very easy to understand.
Brilliant introduction for an old timer, me ! I'm now 100% clearer in what to do now. Great video, thanks.
Newbie here and this perfectly explained everything. I especially appreciate the instructions on how to store the battery by charging it for 10 to 15 minutes versus putting it in storage mode if your not putting it away for 6 months or longer. Good info.
Thanks for a great educational Video now I know why I keep killing my LiPOS 😂
Hello there man 🙋🏻♂️
What a great and good explaining about the topic.
I can't thank you enough man 💁🏻♂️ but really, this is BY far the best ☝🏽charger /lipo battery and so forth and so forth video there is!!!
🤭 One thing do haha... How to discharge the / my lipo, after a full one and not using it for a while.
Or is that automatically when you're do the storries one?

Thanks, very informative as well as useful for nerds like us
Finally someone explained it perfectly. Thank you sir. I was afraid I overcharged my 7.4V 3000 MAH when my charger said 8.4V at the end of its charge.
Your welcome mate , Glad you like the video
Extremely helpful especially on hitting the button twice to make sure your charging your battery. Thank you good sir.
