Cell Voltage After Charging....

[LiPo Power]

May I ask someone to check each cell voltage of 4S LiPo battery after charging please?
Thanks
Robert

Each cell should read 4.2 volts when fully charged - so that's 16.8 volts for the pack.

Weither it's a 2s or a 10s voltage should peek at 4.20v per cell, 4.18,4.19 is exceptable also.

[LiPo Power]

Ok I just checked my 2 4S new LiPos and I have:
1=4.14
2=4.17
3=4.19
4=4.18
Is that good or my cells are way out of balance for me to swich to panic mode?

Do you balance when you charge. Don't panic!

[LiPo Power]

Could you please tell me what voltage would be not acceptable or alarming when it comes to out of balance?
Thanks

Since I do not balance when discharging in my boats I only balance sometimes....
Is that ok?

[BondoBrushless]

Agreed, no need to panic. They can be brought back to where they need to be.

What kind of charger do you have ?
Is it capable of discharge balance also ?
If so, just cycle it a couple times and it should bring everything together.

#1 - Always balance when chargeing !!

Is it capable of discharge balance also ? YES

I ALWAYS balance charge... i have mistakingly done a regular charge and my cell voltages are like 4.12 etc..... balance charging always keeps them at 4.20v.

Did the Voltage come up Different after a balance charge?

[LiPo Power]

Not sure yet as my LiPos are charged and I need to use them and charge again. I will balance charge them this time and check voltage then....
Thanks

Your cell voltages are fine as listed. You are only talking several 100ths of a volt differences and measurment in-accuracies of meters, chargers etc can play a role in the reading differences.

I may be asking a stupid question, but don't all lipo chargers just automatically always balance charge? I use a hyperion DUO

[Chilli]

Nope. Not all Lipo chargers have internal balancers. The Hyperion 1210i charger for example requires the LBA-10 external balancer to balance packs.

Gotcha. Thought it was standard practice to include balancing. But like I said, only thing I've ever used is my duo
