How to revive a LiPo Battery from below 3.00v / cell

Two methods that describe how it is possible to revive a LiPo battery pack. Both methods can be used if at least one cell is below the 3.00v per cell minimum threshold.
Method one involves charging your LiPo battery pack on a LiPo charging cycle. Dependant on the charger you have, this may or may not be possible. Refer to method 2 if this is not possible. Otherwise, charge your pack to 3.40 volts at a charge rate of 1/10 C.
Method two involves charging your LiPo pack as an equivalent voltage NiMh or NiCd pack. Select the correct cell count and current parameter before initiating the charge. Once a minimum of 3.40 volts per cell is met, continue charging at a rate of 1C until fully charged.

so for your second method, so you mean dont plug in the balance connector at all - to bring it back upto about 3.4v?

I’ve heard people doing this but didn’t trust it until I heard it straight from you. Thanks again for your ongoing contribution to the community. I really appreciate it and sure others do too.

Thanks Funcentric. As long as you are carefully monitoring the battery throughout this process, it works.

Part of the reason you are not supposed to discharge below 3 volts is because copper ions start to form from the copper current collector from the anode. Those copper ions can deposit anywhere, the cathode, anode, current collector etc and generally lower capacity, increase internal resistance, can cause electrolyte degradation and puffing.

Sounds like this battery is too far gone. When the voltage gets that low its past the point you can save it.

I bought an rtr rc car and the 3s battery it came with the car was DOA. My charger refused to charge it and it kept showing it as 1s. Somehow I managed to make the charger see it as 3s but now two cells get stuck around 3.6 volts while the good cell is at 4.2v. Help!
@RCexplained
@RCexplained 3 года назад
2 Options. Try charging your LiPo at a very slow rate so that it can balance charge the 2 cells that are weak on voltage. Otherwise place the pack on the charge and just on balance mode to see if it can discharge the good cell down. Once it comes down, try and charge again. You should never measure an increase in temperature from any of the cells while performing these steps.

Hi I’m new to your channel I have a question I have a one cell 3.7 V 500 mAh Lipo battery that I got with my new plane recently I want to be able to have it as long as possible so I can get proper use out of it through the years and I also have drones of different sizes and make sure I take care of the batteries ? FYI the charger that I got to charge those batteries for my plane traditional dumb charger ?

I purchased a brand new battery and I received it. The battery was extremely unbalanced. It's an 11.1v 1200mAh 30c lipo battery with the matching smart balancing lipo charger. The battery has 3 cells in total and when checking the battery health on my capacity controller, two cells where sitting at about 75% and the third was at 0.1v yes 0.1v. Now after attempting to plug it in and hopefully the smart balancing charger could revive it but I was just getting an error and no charge. After I used my NiMH to get some life in it for a minute charging, it is now charging under a Lipo charge but it's taking so long. I had it changing for about five hour's and now cell three has reached 31%. I'm very close by and watching it every few minutes here and there touching it for heat or swelling and nothing. I really could use some help please! Is it best to just throw it out safety or should it be ok because it is brand new?
@COLLECTOR-Airsoft
@COLLECTOR-Airsoft Год назад
I did forget to mention the battery is very solid and ferm with no damage at all. Everything is perfect and brand new right from Valken Airsoft company. Also the other two cells hit 98% as the one cell is trying to charge
@RCexplained
@RCexplained Год назад
If the cell was at around 0.00v, you may not know how long it's been at this voltage. Generally a deeply discharged cell has very little hope of being revived. If you stopped the charge around 30% and the cell dropped under 3.00v again after 8 hours or so, this is a sign that it may be permanently damaged to the point where you can't revive.

Your charger should be able to charge the pack up if it sees 3.4v for each cell. Make sure that it sees all the cells and there is no issue with you connector.

Hi my name is Bill , I watched your video and it really sounded like you knew what you were talking about , so I have a question for you I have a drone it's a CSJ 167, I've had it for about a year , it's really and easy to fly , my problem is it's been sitting for about 4 month tonight I broke it out and was going change on of the motors out but when i plugged the battery in to check if it needed a charge plug green light just blinks it doesn't go to a steady green indicating that it's charging an I got the same results with the other 2 batteries is it possible that all 3 batteries went bad? There's no leads coming off the battery so I'm not sure how to check how much voltage is in it on the plug in how do I know which is positive and which is negative
@RCexplained
@RCexplained 3 года назад
Hi Bill, your battery is a 7.4V 1300mAh LiPo battery. You will need to be able to get a multimeter on the individual cells. Most multimeters can measure negative voltage, meaning knowing positive and negative is not necessary.
