IMPORTANT:
1) DO NOT leave the battery in your model when charging
2) DO NOT leave unattended when charging
3) ALWAYS balance charge the battery
4) ALWAYS use a LiPo charging bag
5) YOU MUST use a Li-Poly specific charger to charge the pack (NiMH or NiCD only chargers WILL NOT WORK!)
6) YOU MUST not over discharge the Li-Poly battery pack
7) READ & UNDERSTAND the instructions carefully before operating this battery
NOTE: When using high energy Li-Polymer Batteries, please do not over-discharge or over-charge batteries as this will result in over heated batteries. Discharging capacity can't exceed 80% of the max capacity of the pack after full charging to ensure a good cycle performance. It is recommended to fully charge a brand new battery before using and only discharge the battery 50% for first 5 cycles. Always monitor race time and/or set a low voltage warning on ESC (End voltage cannot be lower than 3.2v per cell) Do not use the battery that has too low a voltage.
Do not expose batteries to sunshine or store/charge batteries at the temperature above 35°C or in a closed car. The high temperature environment could cause damage to the pack or make it burst. If the battery becomes hot while fast charging, high current discharging or racing, do not charge the battery until it has cooled completely. Wait about 20 mins, then inspect prior to recharging.

I purchased two of these during a great Black Friday sale last November (5 months ago). I have always balanced charged these packs on my iCharger 308Duo. I never used them below 3.7v/cell. I have 13 cycles on each of these packs and their performance has degraded beyond their intended use. The cells are always out of balance after use...sometimes by as much as 1v. The internal resistance of the cells in each pack varies widely from 1.7 to 3.2. The packs were never more than 100F after use and they have not puffed whatsoever. The voltage drop under load is so bad I can't use them for anything.
Since I was not able to put these packs in full use until winter was over, the 90-day warranty has long expired and I'm left with two expensive paper weights. I know LiPo quality can be a roll of the dice. I would simply recommend that if you purchase these packs, you are able to fully utilize and test them within the warranty period.
