Li-Po Battery Protection Circuits

Post by MegatronUK »

I've just bought these batteries, and need the correct protection circuits for them. I know that this is the right one to use, but shipping to the UK is an astronomical $56!!!

Does anyone know of an alternative source?

That can't be right. Keep looking around. If you have no luck, I'll ship you a pair in an envelope. They're tiny!

I know, I'm in the us, and it's 10.24 to ship to my house. I was planning on getting 2, but I could probably get 3 and send one to you. :D

You need 2 circuits for those batteries. One circuit is good for 2 cells.

Why would you need 2? He's just going to wire them in parrallel, I assume.

A cell is a cell is a cell. One PC will charge 2 cells, and there are 4 cells there. See?

Yep, I was going to get two (running the two packs in parallel for 7.4v 8000mAh), for the princely sum of $7 :D

I've just had another look and when you go to the international checkout option thats definitely the price. I might send them an email to see if there is anything they can do, because, well, that's just stupid!
