Discharge monitoring module

This discharge monitoring module is certainly the year's most important innovation.
Its purpose is to ensure that no cell in a LiPo pack suffers deep-discharging - far less reversed polarity - when being discharged in a model.
This small module is your guarantee of a longer effective battery life - especially if the pack consists of imperfectly selected cells - as it monitors the voltage level of each individual cell in the flight pack, and causes the motor to be throttled back if any cell falls below the permissible deep-discharge limit value.
The unit is simply connected to the balancer socket of your battery; the “servo lead” from the speed controller / governor is then looped through to the receiver.

The name reflects the function:
LiPo-Di scharge M onitoring A nd T hrottle I ntera C tion.

Since the LiPoDiMATIC intervenes directly in the throttle channel circuit, and - when required - shortens the throttle signal generated by the receiver, any(*) speed controller or governor can now be used safely with Lithium batteries in the simplest possible manner.

You can forget the arguments about the best average cut-off voltage per cell - should it be 2.5 volts or 3.3 volts?
With this module the weakest cell alone determines when the throttle signal is to be “throttled back”, or even whether the motor is switched off completely.

• The LiPoDiMATIC requires no adjustment of any kind in order to work properly with speed controllers and governors whether fitted with BEC or opto-coupler.
• The LiPoDiMATIC is available for various balancer connector systems and cell counts.
• The throttle reduction can be adjusted within certain limits for particular applications.
• A LED indicates the number of the cell which was responsible for the throttle reduction.

(*) provided - as usually - that the pulse width for the motor stop position is shorter than the pulse width for full throttle.
