The Discharge Curve:  LiPo's ARE NOT like other batteries.  The voltage, while under load, is non-linear, and tends to fall off more rapidly as it nears the end of its charge cycle.  Flying by “Timing” the flight can lead to battery damage.  A Low Voltage Cut-off set point on the ESC can false trigger and is difficult to optimize.  Don’t fly blind.  Know exactly where you are in the Discharge Curve.  The LiPo Battery Monitor has 7 color modes:  Good = Blue/Cyan,  Warn = Green/Yellow/Orange (80-85% discharge), Low = Red, and Overload = Magenta (triggered if the monitor detects a load that is to severe).

Pulse Level Detection (PLD):  Depending on the load, a LiPo battery pack voltage may pulse as much as 15-25% below DC levels! The LiPo Battery Monitor features a unique In-Flight representation of the changing Pulse Depth under various load/discharge conditions. The PLD feature can also indicate an OVERLOAD condition. It is important to remember a sustained voltage below 2.8v per cell may damage a LiPo pack.  

Specifications:  Input Maximum: +30v; Current Drain Maximum: 45mA; Weight: .2 oz; LED Cable Length: 5”; Power Leads Length: 10”; Board Size: .4” x .6”; Accuracy +/- 1%; 4kv Electro-Static protection; Reverse Hook-up and Short-Circuit protected

Installation is easy:  Simply solder the LiPo Battery Monitor to the “Deans” side of the speed controller, set the dip switches to proper battery pack, mount monitor and high intensity LED’s  That’s it! Go Fly!

When monitor turns from blue to green this is the recommended time to begin a landing.  Flying the monitor to the red zone is not recommend for optimal battery life.  High Voltage RC is not responsible for battery damage due to misuse of monitor.
