Does traxxas charger discharge batteries?

The Traxxas EZ-Peak Plus charger (part #2970) makes it easy to store LiPo battery packs properly; just select the Storage mode, and it will charge or discharge the pack to the proper storage voltage.

How much should you discharge a LiPo battery?

Never discharge a LiPo battery below 3.0v per cell. Ideally you never want to go below 3.2v per cell to maintain a healthy battery. 2.9v per cell and lower is causing permanent damage.

How long does Traxxas battery last?

30-90 minutes
Traxxas RC batteries typically last 30-90 minutes, depending on vehicle, terrain, and application (or how long and how hard you push your RC vehicle).

What does over discharged battery mean?

Overdischarge is a phenomenon that occurs when a cell is discharged beyond the lower safe voltage limit determined by the electrode chemistry coupling. 13. Overdischarge is a potential problem in large battery packs since cells are discharged at the same rate, despite having different capacities.

Should LiPo batteries be fully discharged?

LiPo batteries can discharge much more current than a NiCd battery and can be fully charged within approximately one hour. LiPo batteries do not develop memory or voltage depression characteristics like NiCd batteries; they do not need to be discharged before being charged.

How fast can I discharge a LiPo battery?

At 150W, it can discharge most FPV drone batteries in a matter of minutes. With this discharger, you can either discharge the battery completely, or set a voltage to stop the discharge (e.g. 3.80-3.85V per cell for storage).

Do I need to discharge LiPo before charging?

LiPo batteries also don’t develop memory or voltage depression characteristics like NiCd/NiHm batteries, and do not need to be discharged before being charged. But they’re not without their downside. Mishandling of these batteries can lead to fire, explosions and toxic smoke inhalation.
