Li po battery charger

Device used to recharge batteries, usually supplied with the radio if NiCd batteries are included.

LiPo charger: It is imperative that you use a specially made LiPo charger to recharge your batteries. Never use a charger designed for other types of rechargeable battery, the charging current will be wrong and there is no safety switch-off, the need to stop all LiPo chargers overcharging. Overcharging a LiPo battery, the battery caught fire, there are reports of exploding batteries.

Charge Rate: Always make sure that your charger at the same voltage as your LiPo battery. LiPo batteries are commonly used in batteries, so many chargers have a variable fee setting so that you can charge more packs. Check the label on the battery or battery to determine the output voltage. Place the charger on the same voltage, a little lower no problem, but a higher voltage damages the battery and can be dangerous, as in Section 1.

Excessive Discharge: LiPo batteries can be recharged at any point during the discharge with no ill effects or damage. However, if you fully discharge the battery and try to successfully - and that's unlikely, since LiPo manufacturers have built in a safety device to prevent this - it will not recharge. This is because, deep discharge destroys the chemical basis of the battery and make it unusable.

LiPo Charging: BagLegen Always store your batteries in a bag while they are chargeable. The bag is a fire and explosion protection so that if a problem occurs while the batteries are charged, you will be safe. They are fairly inexpensive and widely available from electrical and hobby stores. Never leave LiPo batteries, the charge will be unsupervised. Always turn the charger when the batteries are charged and allow them in the bag before they cool.

BEC - Battery Eliminator Circuitry
A circuit that eliminates the need for a receiver battery, usually in electric R/C cars and boats.

Wiki:
A battery eliminator circuit (BEC) is an electronic circuit designed to deliver electrical power to other circuitry without the need for a battery. Historically the expression was sometimes used to describe devices used to power battery-driven equipment from mains electricity. This is still the case in many products offered in retail electronic supply stores.
