About default battery for OPENCR #338

Closed minhlang102 closed 7 months ago

minhlang102 commented 7 months ago

Hi guys,

I've read on manual that it said default battery is LI-PO 11.1V 1,800mAh 19.98Wh. I had a question that could i use 3s Lipo battery, 6200mah 100c for OpenCR via T-plug?

Thanks in advance,

Hi @minhlang102

OpenCR1.0 has a fuse. I haven't tried high current LIPO, but you need to input power within the range that this fuse can safely use. https://emanual.robotis.com/docs/en/parts/controller/opencr10/ image

Hello @shiba-8ro

Thank you for your response. I'm using Turtlebot3 and it doesn't draw current more than 10A. So is it safety if i use battery mentioned above?

shiba-8ro commented 7 months ago

@minhlang102 I have never run a current of more than 5A through TB3, so I cannot guarantee it, but I think it is possible. However, if you do so, please do so at your own risk.

Thank you, @shiba-8ro I'll consider it.
