KAVAN NiMH 2000mAh/7.2V + Tamiya

Excellent six-cell 7.2 V NiMH drive battery 2000 mAh, ideal for recreational and sports models of RC cars 1:10, other ground vehicles and model ships and airplanes. The battery pack in the classic "tube" arrangement with a standard Tamiya® connector is ready to use - just charge and hit the track!

KAVAN sub-C (SC) drive batteries offer high capacity and discharge current, low internal resistance and long service life. They enable fast charging at 1C level, maximum discharge current up to 20 A, peak up to 40 A.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Fasten the accumulators, for example, with Velcro or tightening straps so that they cannot come loose during operation, in an easily accessible place on the model, where they will be protected from the penetration of fuel, exhaust fumes and other operating fluids or water.

CHARGING THE BATTERY

Fully charge the battery before first use. Do not charge the drive accumulators with a current greater than 1C. The battery temperature during charging should not exceed 40°C (the battery is warm to the touch, not hot).

BATTERY FORMING

For optimal commissioning of a new accumulator, we recommend performing an initial formation consisting of 3-5 cycles including slow charging with a current of 0.1-0.2C and discharging with a current of max. 1C. The size of the charged charge is not very important, the value of the discharged charge is decisive - stop forming as soon as the size of the discharged charge practically does not change (individual values are in the range of approx. 5-10%). We recommend carrying out the same procedure after long-term (in the order of months) storage of accumulators out of operation.

BATTERY DISCHARGE

We recommend fully discharging the batteries before charging (to 1.0 V per cell, i.e. 6.0 V for a six-cell set). If the batteries become warm during discharge, allow them to cool down to ambient temperature before charging. During operation, the accumulators should not heat up to more than approx. 60°C (the accumulator is hot to the touch, but it is still possible to hold it in the hand). If this happens, you should change the operating conditions of the accumulator (reduce the current consumption) or use accumulators with a higher current capacity.

BATTERY STORAGE

NiMH batteries are stored fully charged. If you know that you will not be using the batteries for more than 3-4 weeks, fully charge them and store them in a dry place with normal room temperature. For long-term non-operational storage, we recommend fully discharging the batteries every 3 months (to 1.0 V per cell) and then fully charging them again.
