RC Batteries Nitro Vs LiPo

Ok I will try to be free of bias in this article. The
remote control community will have their very own opinion about Nitro
Vs LiPo\'s. I am only voicing my opinions and experience on Traxxas cars
and trucks that I own.

I think for the hobbyist who is just
learning the RC hobby, owning an electric remote control car (hint:
Traxxas T/E-maxx very solid) is a tad simpler to get outdoors/indoors
to start thrashing in your backyard or racing at local tracks. They
only thing you really have to purchase are a good charge/discharger and
a great battery. Now to get the most enjoyment out of your first
electric vehicle try to save up money for a lipo battery.

One
thing you must be aware with LiPo\'s, if not handled properly they can
catch fire and explode. So please be careful when charging these
batteries. Only use approved chargers for the type of battery you will
run in your RC vehicle. Here are some basic guidelines for charging
your new LiPo batteries.

1. Of course only use approved charges for lithium batteries. The charger needs to be designed for Li-Ion or Li-Poly.

2. Set the charger to the correct cell count

3. Do not leave charge battery unattended

4. Use the Taps. For new lithium battery check each voltage of each
cell. Then do this for every 10th cycle or after. Very critical in an
unbalanced pack can explode while charging even on the correct cell
count.

5. Use a smooth and safe surface to charge your new Lithium battery.

6. DO NOT USE if the cell is puncture!

7. Do not charge more than 1C...

8. Charge batteries in a open area

9. To be safe, keep a bucket of sand nearby just in case.

Now
my preference is to run Nitro vehicles (hint hint Traxxas Revo 3.3). If
you\'re a gear head and prefer the smell of burning fuel and getting
your fingers dirty then Nitro RC is for you.
