    Charging Lipos @ 5C with Digital Power Supply

    ok, that seems to be the problem then, I consider the C to be the C of the individual times 8, so i guess it is one or two pulling amps and the rest almost nothing. How is it that i fix them, I am assuming by matching them but how would i go about doing that?

    Charging Lipos @ 5C with Digital Power Supply

    It is a 12 v power supply connected to a buck converter that produces 4.2 volts dc. It can handle up to 20 amps. I hook it up directly to the lipo and measure the current and it is always .5c no matter what

    Charging Lipos @ 5C with Digital Power Supply

    Thanks for the response man, I hooked them up to a protection circuit (they were bare way back when) which the protection circuit is only a over and under voltage controller, so it will cut off the current once the charge in the batterys reaches a certain point. 5C was the max amount recommended...

    Charging Lipos @ 5C with Digital Power Supply

    I have a ton of 3.7 volt lipo's at my house, each of which can be charged @ 5C, and since each have a capacity of 270 mAH, than I should easily be able to charge them @ 1amp. I put 8 in parralel with each other so it is a 1s, 8p battery pack. each of the lipos is the same (in tems of specs, ik...

    How to Charge a 4P 1S cylinder Lipo Pack

    Hello, I have recently bought 4 cylindrical lithium ion batteries from hobby king to make a battery pack. To do this, I put all 4 of them in Parallel, so that the voltage would stay the same, but the capacity would increase. It says on Hobby king that they can charge at 5C, and since they are...

    Is the circuit breaker amperage the rms amperage

    Im not exactly sure what it is saying, because no current will be consistantly be drawn out of the outlet, because many times a second, the voltage reaches zero, and thus so is the current.

    Is the circuit breaker amperage the rms amperage

    The circuit breakers of my house say that they are 15a (the majority of them). The rms voltage is 120v for the outlets, and so the peak voltage is about 170v. I was wondering, if I hypthetically connected the terminals together with a 10 ohm resistor, would the breaker trip? I don't know if the...

    Chemistry Can you synthesize any chemical just by looking at its equation?

    I have taken Chem AP at my high school, and I would think that their would be a set of rules you would follow to figure out how to create a chemical, like doing single, and double replacements, until you get their, or electrochemistry, or some other sort of chemical reaction, that you can...

    Chemistry Can you synthesize any chemical just by looking at its equation?

    So, no one is really on that level where they can do that? What do they do if they see a chemical they want to synthesize, and their are no instructions for it? Do they just guess and check? also since you have a degree in it, is their any way you can explain to me how the courses work, and like...

    Chemistry Can you synthesize any chemical just by looking at its equation?

    Hi, I would like to learn chemistry, and I am self taught. I would like to learn chemistry to the point, where if i see a chemical equation, I then know exactly what I need to do to synthesize it, and was wondering if anyone could provide any resources for me to do that. Thank you very much...

    How to shut off Led on buck converter

    I could find none, in the past few hours of searching, I will take your advice and put a switch in. Thanks for your time, I appreciate the help.

    How to shut off Led on buck converter

    well, it is a really small red light, that looks a lot like a square led, with that circular diode in the middle of it, I cannot afford switches at the moment, and was hoping if someone could confirm or deny me being able to remove it, or burn it with something.

    How to shut off Led on buck converter

    I am using a buck converter with a battery pack, for a usb charger. The issue is, is that the buck converter I have ( http://www.ebay.com/itm/DC-Converter-Step-Down-Buck-Module-7V-24V-to-5V-3A-5V-usb-output-power-adapt-/261030150117?hash=item3cc69bffe5:g:Q3UAAMXQTT9R0Qos ) has a led on it, which...
