I was about to enroll in a university majoring in Electrical Engineering so I could learn how to charge my batteries without burning down the neighborhood but this video saved me so much money! Thank you!

This video 2 years old and still teaching us. Thank you.

[@lesbuck7123]

I've watched loads of lipo charger videos but this is by far the most detailed and informative video and covers every aspect about lipo batteries. Well done guys, really appreciate the work that you've put into this tutorial.

[@crazyhobbies4695]

Cheers Les.

[@Darryl388]

@@crazyhobbies4695 with regard to the mAh and the weight of the lipo etc. would a lower S with a higher mAh have more weight than a battery of higher S? I am very close to being able to afford an Xmaxx and have been looking into lipos and chargers. Im in Qld and the local hobby shop has a 4s 14.8v lipo with 9000mAh, Would this have more weight than the 7000mAh 6s lipo in the video? (I know that 2x4s lipos is best for the Xmaxx I was just asking specifically about the weight). Also to slow down how quick the esc and motor heats up what options are there as far as cooling fans for each of these electric components?

[@1kr1sb]

Most definitely the best video I've ever seen on this topic. Clear, concise and very easy to understand. All the others just bamboozle you. Thank you!

[@boblittle711]

Best video on youtube for lipos and charging, explains things very easy to understand.

[@lesterlute10]

This video is exactly what I've been looking for for the past 2hrs. Thank you sir. You broke it all down simple and easy. Everything.

[@JoseRodriguez-un2kc]

Dude, You are awesome. Thank you for posting this video. I've watched so many tutorials and they suck at explaining.

[@ejicon3099]

I'm brand spankin new to Lipo batteries and the current state of RC cars. This video is the perfect companion to help get me on track with everything. Thank you very much. Really appreciate all the time and effort you put into making this video (even with all the jokes and soundbites.)

[@ronchang9791]

Another compliment on this video after watching numerous other lipo battery videos! What I notice is that other videos push getting a proper number for each specification, yet I still walk away with questions. This video does a GREAT job of isolating each number, before moving on to the next so I don't get re-confused all over again. Thanks!

[@yblegl]

Best video so far I've seen about LIPO batteries. I was so confused before watching this video and I feel 100% more confident now in what I am doing and understanding how these chargers and batteries work. Awesome awesome job sir!!

[@trevh111]

Every day's a school day!! .... Nice one!

[@anthonypeattie7470]

The most straight forward informational video I’ve watched about LiPo batteries. Much appreciated thanks for your great work!

[@crazyhobbies4695]

Cheers Anthony!

[@nhraandnascarfanatic5907]

I have a friend who likes to get all scientific and technical when it comes to his batteries… honestly.. this video proves that getting the most out of your lipos and caring for them isn’t complicated..

[@TeamHeavyChevy1]

By far the best video / explanation on lipo charging & maintenance, hands down. The video was straight and to the point, nothing less nothing more. Thank You

[@xxfyrezgamerxx6279]

This is by far the best video I have come across. Thank you so much for the help. ❤

[@steveg7368]

Brilliant introduction for an old timer, me ! I'm now 100% clearer in what to do now. Great video, thanks.

[@pjbennett8931]

Best charging video I've seen on KZbin. Extremely thorough and helpful, thankyou

[@madaxman72]

Answered all my questions in one go! Great stuff, thank you very much.

[@DavidDonkel]

Thank you very much for making this video! It's very clear, and I mean VERY clear! I just got my first charger in today, after spending the last five years charging my 2s batteries with the help of a trickle charger... Yeah, seriously! Whenever me and my son wanna go out with the cars, I needed to start charging like 2 days before the bash session, because I needed to charge 8 5000 mah batteries. Also, the storage mode is something that gives me a LOT more peace of mind, because I never used a storage mode. Just as an addition; I have bought myself an ammo box to store the batteries in. The bags are used when charging AND the charging is done OUTside of the house. I really enjoyed the video and learned quite a lot. Thanks again!

[@darkside-ck6mp]

By far the best video explaining Lipos and the correct way to use them. Thanks for helping everyone out!

[@memyselfandi3242]

Best rc battery video I've ever seen. You explain it all! Thanks so much.

[@miguel360kmc]

It's no where near as complicated as people make it seem .. you do a great job at breaking it all down 🙏 thanks

[@adams8778]

I’m a complete newbie to electric rc and this video is a bloody godsend. Had no idea about lipos and chargers and this helped maintain my sanity with it all. Cheers

[@Rafoam]

This is BY FAR the best video there is regarding RC battery facts, recommendations and information in general. I cannot understand those people that put thumbs down to this. Absolute congratulations for this video guys! And my thanks for sharing this information in such a professional yet easy and clear way.

[@pat690111301]

Your 3 year old video helpt me so much! Thanks 1000 times for your in dept video 👍🏽👍🏽

[@user-fz5mn6wj4m]

Surprisingly! Its best and is the most informative review that you can find on the Internet !!! WoW

[@TrashMan2008]

This has been very informative just starting out with electric buggy. Thank you for all the techno jargon LOL.

[@chrisboyce4222]

Thank you sooo much for making this video mate, it really helped me as just bought a Arrma Notorious and wasn't sure about the LiPo batteries or how to charge them. Really appreciate you taking the time to make it, it made me understand exactly what I need to do:)

[@pete3816]

“When you charge your battery... you’re actually putting chemicals inside your battery”. 🤔 the rest of the video was spot on - Really helpful. But this statement right here, I just can’t let it slide 😂 😂 😂

[@crazyhobbies4695]

Cheers Pete, We do like to explain things a little easy so our viewers can understand whats happening once they charge there batteries.

[@basicsyphilis8]

Extremely helpful especially on hitting the button twice to make sure your charging your battery. Thank you good sir.

[@Eagles25]

Had to leave more than one comment. Watched the video till the end. Sooooo detailed! Watched other videos and still wasnt that confident on what to do. Totally new beginner here. So this covers EVERYTHING! Definitely had to subscribe and like the video! Thanks again!

[@hkkustoms98387]

Thank you for putting the time into this video.. I have an old Traxxas Rustler Vxl, 2wd.. It's been sitting on a shelf, for a long time.. Got rid of all my old batteries, and ordered new one's.. Haven't actually tried the whole Lipo aspect, but gonna try it out now... Appreciate the info.. Again, thank you for giving me a better understanding of how they work, and what I need to look out for.. Two thumbs up... Just saying!!!

[@DuneSport650]

Best video ever, exactly what I was looking for. 👍👌

[@edctg]

Newbie here and this perfectly explained everything. I especially appreciate the instructions on how to store the battery by charging it for 10 to 15 minutes versus putting it in storage mode if your not putting it away for 6 months or longer. Good info.

[@connorwhite2745]

This is the video I’ve been looking for!! So helpful and simple, really great job. Thanks mate!

[@stgraves260]

Finally someone explained it perfectly. Thank you sir. I was afraid I overcharged my 7.4V 3000 MAH when my charger said 8.4V at the end of its charge.

[@crazyhobbies4695]

Your welcome mate , Glad you like the video

[@HonestApeBeardCompany]

You have no idea how extremely helpful this was, much appreciated!

[@kanejackson5620]

Omg I watched like 20 videos and this one is the only one that explains the numbers instead of recording putting in random numbers

[@TheRoadTaken]

WOW, just wow! What an easy to follow but better yet easy video to finally understand. I _almost_ didn't watch when I saw how long it was but I am *so* glad I did! Not joking, every single question I had was answered. It' like you looked into my brain and plucked out the exact things I was lost on. I picked up a charger based on a recommendation but wasn't sure how to use it (the manual was useless and the other YT videos I've watched didn't help me understand). I've had the charger and batteries for 9 months and I haven't used them. I knew the batteries were in storage mode so I haven't touched them. The RC truck has been sitting in a box for 9 months. Seriously. I was afraid I was going to burn my house down. In your video, you said they are all the same - while I have a different charger than what you showed, the screens were almost identical and I was able to follow along finally able to *_safely_* charge my batteries now. I also know and understand how to put the batteries in storage mode, and how to keep them from fainting... and so much more. To say "thank you" doesn't do this video justice but I'll say it anyway, thank you, truly. I really enjoyed driving my new truck around yesterday.

[@AussieDad79]

The exact video I needed as a beginner trying to understand batteries and charging/storing lipos. Thanks heaps from Perth!!

[@basicsyphilis8]

SUPER!!! All jokes aside extremely helpful. I’m new like today new & now I have a fully charged battery 1st run in a few minutes 💥✌️

[@NaturebyGus]

Great video and another important tip is that while charging, if you press the left arrow (or DEC in many similar chargers) you can see the target end voltage so you know how far or close you are to finish.

[@Dsho7]

You ROCK! Thank you for clearing up all the confusion I had on setting up my charger, I don't have the same brand you're using, but the setup was the same. BRAVO! My friend 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@outbackrcaustralia4895]

Great battery lesson Crazy Master 👌 Even Mrs Outback watched it intently and now knows everything about batteries & chargers now 🤓 I'm already in trouble for not storing our batteries correctly! 🤪. I'm definitely grabbing a couple of your multi plugs next visit!. A huuuuge thanks to you & your Crazy Legends for the fun & entertainment & for looking after us when we visited your store recently, we had the best time & went home with some awesome goodies!.
