First I charge the mini 3 battery with the 60W PD and it showed only about 18-20W. The small portable power station I bought utilizes the LiFe battery thus more useful cycle than the Lipo (2000 vs 300 or so) plus the Life is much safer.ġ* 110V/160W AC outlets modified sine wave (200W peak) ġ* QC 3.0 USB output (5V/3A, 9V/2A, 12V/1.5A) I also fly the rc helicopter so while I charged the Mini 3 battery, I rc flied my rc heli. So I decided to get the portable power station so that I can charge the battery at the field. While I was waiting for the Fly More package, I only have 1 battery that came with the Mini 3. Well said! I've been fast charging devices for years and people "can still hear me now." M2P/Smart Controller, Mini, Mini 2, Air2, Air2S, M3C/RC Pro and now the Mini 3 Pro/DJI RC.īack on topic: I'm currently using this 95w charger in the truck and it's been great! I have never seen a LiPo cell rated at less than 1C recharge rate, and I would wager cash that the ones in the Mini 3 Pro's battery are rated much higher, as the recharge rate would be related to the discharge rate, which if a flight lasts about 30 minutes, would make it 2C at least. For Ss & Gs, let's call it a recharge rate close to 2C. That means that a 36 watt charger would recharge the battery in between 35-50 minutes, given the heating losses and balancing inefficiencies in the battery smarts. or, with it's rated voltage, around 18 Wh. For the Mini 3 standard battery, that would be 2.5 A. Typically, the lowest recharge rate would be 1C (1 times the Ah rating of the battery or cell). The only issue is, at some point in time, the smarts in the battery will only allow so much "gozinta" - and DJI has not specified how much that max gozinta is, from what I've read, and the standard battery doesn't seem to mind my 65W charger one bit.Īll LiPos are rated by the manufacturer for maximum acceptable recharge rate. Given the tolerances on a modern LiPo cell, I wouldn't be surprised if a 5C charge rate would be totally harmless as well. If it takes at least as long or longer to charge than it does discharge, there is absolutely zero chance of harming the battery by charging it at this rate. I have never seen a LiPo cell rated at less than 1C recharge rate, and I would wager cash that the ones in the Mini 3 Pro's battery are rated much higher, as the recharge rate would be related to the discharge rate, which if a flight lasts about 30 minutes, would make it 2C at least. All LiPos are rated by the manufacturer for maximum acceptable recharge rate. ![]()
