Crash Damage
If there are signs of smoke or overheating, DO NOT go near the battery or
equipment until it has been observed from a safe distance for at least 15
minutes. Once it is safe, remove the battery and check for damage. Dispose of
damaged batteries appropriately.
Swollen Batteries
Immediately stop using or charging a battery showing any signs of swelling or
becoming too warm. If the battery is not warm to the touch, move it to an open
safe area and observe it for at least 15 minutes. Be VERY CAREFUL when
moving the batteries. Do NOT put ANY pressure on the batteries or covering
as this may cause fire.
Additional Information and Guidelines
1. Battery temperature is the best indicator for safety. The E-flite LiPo battery’s
temperature should never drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit or go above 130
degrees Fahrenheit while charging or discharging.
2. Changing plugs or connectors is not recommended as the process is
dangerous and any error can cause fire due to shorts, reverse polarity or other
improper handling which can cause battery damage.
3. Batteries should be stored in a vented, fire resistant container. Each pack
should be stored in its own locked plastic bag within the container. The
number of packs per container should be extremely limited to avoid chain
reactions. Storage temperatures should not fall below 32 degrees Fahrenheit or
above 130 degrees Fahrenheit. Damaged batteries must be kept at even more
ambient temperatures. High temperatures may cause fire even with
undamaged batteries.
Battery Disposal
LiPo batteries require special handling for safe disposal. The following are
basic instructions for safe disposal. For more detailed safety, disposal and
recycling please go to: www.rbrc.org or www.earth911.org.
Basic Disposal Instructions
Before discarding any LiPo battery it must be rendered safe. The following
steps must be taken to avoid damage or injury to yourself, your property and
anyone who comes in contact with the battery.
If the battery is undamaged but no longer useful:
1. Discharge the battery to a maximum of 2.5V using a slow, safe discharge
method.
2. Leave battery discharged and retest after 24 hours. Many batteries
experience ‘rebound’ and may measure more than 2.5V after 24 hours. If the
voltage is greater than 2.5, repeat the procedure until the battery measures
2.5V or less.
3. Insulate each wire lead with electrical tape or other suitable material.
4. Assure that wire leads cannot touch each other by taping them to opposite
sides of the battery.
5. Place battery in a sealed plastic bag and place bag in a sealed, vented,
fire-safe container.
6. Use fire-safe container to deliver battery to a recycling center authorized for
Lithium Polymer batteries. Please note that not all battery recycling services
include LiPo’s. If no LiPo recycling facility is available in your area, contact your
local or state Hazmat agencies for instructions.
7. If the battery or wiring is damaged, please contact your local or state
Hazmat facilities for instructions. Batteries must be rendered safe before being
transported or recycled. Do NOT transport or ship batteries which have more
than a 2.5V charge OR that show signs of damage without following the
instructions given by authorities. Damaged batteries should be rendered as
safe as possible and stored in a vented fireproof container until recycled.
