A LiPo battery may not charge if its voltage drops below 3.7V per cell. At this point, the battery’s internal resistance rises, complicating charging. If the voltage falls below 3.0V per cell, it can cause serious, permanent damage. To protect the battery’s lifespan, avoid letting it completely discharge.
Another reason your LiPo battery might not charge is a low cell voltage. LiPo batteries have a safe voltage range. If one or more cells drop below this threshold, the battery may enter a protective state and refuse to charge. You can use a cell checker to assess each cell’s voltage.
Lastly, ensure that the charging port and connections are clean and secure. Loose or dirty connections can interrupt the charging process.
If you address these issues and your LiPo battery still won’t charge, you may need professional help or a replacement. Understanding these common fixes for a dead battery can help you troubleshoot effectively.
Next, we will explore how to properly maintain your LiPo battery to prolong its lifespan and enhance its performance.
