Feature Overview
You'll never have to set charge preferences for a Spektrum Smart
battery until you want to. When a Spektrum Smart LiPo battery is
connected to a Spektrum Smart charger, unique parameters and health
of that Smart LiPo battery upload from the Smart memory microchip
integrated into the battery. Through the charger, you can view and
set preferences, such as charge rates, so that all you have to do
to charge the pack every time is press the charger "Start" button.
Smart technology takes care of the rest.
Our new Spektrum Smart 50C LiPos come in a variety of popular sizes
and are ready to drop into your RC car or boat for better
performance, power, and reliability. These battery packs are a
great upgrade for those looking to get more punch and off the line
power on nearly any setup.
Spektrum Smart LiPo Batteries Store Unique Data, Such As:
Battery Brand
Battery Type
Battery Capacity
Battery C Rating
Individual Cell Voltage
Battery Temperature
Charge/Discharge Cycles
Spektrum Smart LiPo batteries also maintain an error log including
the number of over-heat, over-discharge and over-charge incidents
which can be helpful data in assuring that the battery you've
chosen is right for the application. A Smart Battery uploads its
charge parameters to a Spektrum Smart Charger automatically making
charging as simple as pressing the "Start" button. The charge rate
of every Smart Battery is customizable, allowing you to take full
advantage of packs with faster charge ratings.
Smart Battery Technology
When connected to a Spektrum Smart charger, unique parameters and
health of your Smart LiPo battery upload from the Smart memory
microchip integrated into the battery. Through the charger, you can
set and record preferred settings, such as charge rates and
self-discharge options, so that all you have to do to charge the
pack is press the "start" button. Smart technology will take care
of the rest. Every Smart LiPo battery is factory assembled with the
next-generation IC3™ and IC5™ output connector that utilizes a data
transfer wire to relay saved information to your Smart
Chargers.
Data Rich
An integrated microchip allows each Smart Battery to save vital
information such as battery brand, chemistry, cell count, capacity,
number of charging cycles, number of discharges, C rating, battery
temperature, and internal resistance. Additionally, each battery
will save a log of unhealthy events such as over-charge,
over-discharge, and over-temperature. This allows you to make the
most informed decision about each battery when you are getting your
gear ready for a day at the field or the track
Simple and Quick
Preset charge, discharge, and storage parameters are automatically
relayed to a Spektrum Smart Charger making charging as simple as
pressing the “start” button. Charge rate of individual batteries
can be user customized allowing you to take full advantage of packs
with faster charge ratings. The integrated microchip on each
battery will remember the last charging rate you set, so the next
time you plug it in, these settings will automatically populate so
all you have to do is press “Start.”
New IC3 & IC5 Connectors
The innovative Smart connection is made possible by an installed
microchip on every battery, feeding the unique information through
a data cable to the new IC3 and IC5 connectors. The IC series of
connectors are designed from the ground up to provide a more solid
connection, higher heat resistance, and effortless installation.
For those using the popular EC3 and EC5 connectors, there's no need
to worry. The IC connector series is entirely backwards compatible
with existing connectors so you can use Smart Batteries with older
systems, but only when connected to a Spektrum Smart device are all
the benefits of Smart technology obvious.
Smart Discharge
LiPo batteries with Spektrum Smart™ technology practically take
care of themselves. When programmed with a Spektrum Smart Charger,
Smart Batteries will automatically discharge to your predetermined
storage voltage when they are left to rest for a time period you
choose, between 12 and 240 hours. This feature will help to extend
the life of your Smart Batteries by preventing your batteries from
sitting fully charged for an extended period of time, which can
damage the chemical integrity of Lithium Polymer cells. This unique
feature results in longer battery life expectancy and better
performance over the life of the pack.
