The ASCU and all LiPo ready SW-COMPs cut off power to your motor when it detects low voltage so you can't fire your gun, but it can't turn itself off, so it keeps draining power.

It's advertised on the unconventional airsoft triggermasters that you shouldn't leave batteries plugged in due to their constant drain, but I don't know if anyone else gives you that critical piece of info.

It all makes senses
I hope others will read that info one way or another then

Curious Question.. I have a LIPo and it's a 20C 7.4V 1200 mAh. I have a B6D charger but i have never charged a lipo before.. I know there is balancing.. Just curious if anyone can help me out.. Thanx :) do i set the amps to 1.2A and the V to 7.4V

Set is to 2S (2 cell) or 7.4v, whichever your charger goes by
Set it to 1.2A absolute maximum, although it doesn't hurt your batteries at all to charge at a lower amperage
Straight charging generally doesn't balance the pack, it just charges it until one of the cells reaches 4.2v. Balancing ensures every cell is at 4.2v. However you only need to balance the battery every 10 charges or so from what I hear.

K awesome.. Thanx man

I can't believe how fast it charged and no heat at all. Amazing. With the B6D charger it charged in 30 min

11,1 25C 5000 mAh LiPo
 
I`m not sure if this is the right thread to ask this but do you think that 11,1v 25C 5000 mAh Lipo would be a little overkill to a G36c with highspeed gears (SHS 16:1) and a SHS Ultra High Torque motor and a M120 spring (400fps) ? I wanna hear your opinions about this.

Not a little overkill, it's a freaking Nuke.

Your gonna blow it up. My 249 at 380fps with an EF1300 motor, shoots 1500rpm on an 11.1v lipo and it's got TRIPLE TORQUE gears.

Well my friend has been running his high speed mp5 with 14,8v lipo and it has a rof about 40 and same parts have holded up for a year now

ThunderCactus August 25th, 2011 15:19

How does it even feed BBs that fast?

So, what exactly are you asking for? You've already answered your question since you know your friends mp5 have the same parts and is running an even higher voltage battery.

How do u figure out how many cells there is in a lipo battery? i.e. 11.1v 1300mAh 20c <- which of these indicate the number of cells.

The 11.1v is the indicator. All LiPo cells are 3.7v each. Therefore:

2 cells are 7.4v, 3 cells are 11.1v, 4 cells are 14.8v.

Your example is actually missing a bit of info, but it is ok because the voltage can be used to calculate the amount of cells. The missing information is the "S" number. "S" is the number of cells.

Your above example battery would also be known as: 11.1v 1300MaH 3S 20C.

Just to add to the charging portion, it's actually a good idea to balance charge LiPo batteries every time as the cells do not necessarily discharge or charge at the same rate.
