Battery Safety

• 

NEVER store the battery fully charged or flat.

• 

If used then bring the voltage up with your charger to the storage level of 

15,1V- 15,4V.

• 

If charged fully and not used you will have to discharge the battery to 15,1V- 

15,4V either by flying the drone or by using the discharge function on the 

charger, flying even just hovering can achieve this the fastest.

• 

At this Voltage, the battery will stay healthy for long periods (15.1 - 15.4V II / 

22.6 - 23.1V II MAX)

• 

NEVER leave a charging battery unattended, keep watch on the charging 

process & react to any potential problems that may occur.

• 

NEVER charge a hot battery, always let it cool down first,

• 

Always use the supplied charger by Gannet

• 

NEVER exceed a 1C charge Amperage best to charge the battery at 5-5.5A, It is 

slower but safer 

• 

NEVER store LiPo batteries in any location that exceeds 25°C (80° F) (e.g. in a 

car, garage, or in the sun)

• 

NEVER let the battery or chargers positive and negative leads touch. This can 

cause the battery to short and lead to a FIRE.

• 

NEVER charge a swollen or ballooned battery (even if swollen upon purchase). 

Continuing to charge a battery that has begun to swell will result in a fire.

• 

If the battery reaches high temperatures during charging follow these steps:

• 

STOP the charging process and disconnect battery immediately • Disconnect 

battery from the charger immediately.

• 

Place it in an open non-flammable area.

• 

Watch it for approx. 30 minutes from a safe distance.

• 

Follow proper procedure to dispose of battery
