lipo Qs
ok so I got a lipo system for my birthday (september 5) and i got a hyperion 0403i and a hyperion 4270mah cx 7.4v pack. heres what i don't get..... when i plug it it after it is out (7.460-7.420) and then after charging it is 8.412v, why is it 1v higher then what it says? why don't they call it an 8.4v because it's max output is 8.4v?

RE: lipo Qs
yeh, my venom 11.1volt lipo charges upto 12.54 volts. but, when the battery needs to be re-charged(when the low-voltage cutoff kicks in) the battery reads 10.8-11.3. like what was mentioned, they show the nominal voltage, not the max. that max voltage may only last a short while, then you really have 7.4-7.8 volts for the majority of your use.

RE: lipo Qs
not all rechargeables... ni-cad, nimh, li-po, li-ion, are all advertised at the nominal voltage, but NOT li-Fe (A123) for some reason. With A123 batteries they advertise them at the full charge voltage of 3.3 volts/cell....
