LiPo Charging Modes

Change your LiPo charging mode, if desired.
The default setting for iD LiPo batteries is Balance Charge.

Storage Charge

Makes it easy to charge or discharge
the battery to the proper storage
voltage. Use this mode whenever the
battery will be stored unused
for more than 7 days.

Fast Charge

Fast charges your battery without
balancing your cells. Stops charging
when battery is fully charged or
when the first cell reaches peak
voltage. Depending on the battery,
this may reduce the charge time by
a few minutes.

Balance Charge

Always balance charge your LiPo
batteries for maximum capacity,
voltage, and battery life. This is
the default setting for Traxxas
iD batteries. The EZ-Peak Live
performs a balance charge quickly
and efficiently.
