| RAPOSA uses Lithium-ion Polymer batteries (Li-Po) with 4800mAh and 14.8V.
| |
|
| |
| The primary difference between this batteries and other Lithium-ion is that the lithium-salt electrolyte is not held in an organic solvent but in a solid polymer composite such as polyethylene oxide or polyacrylonitrile.
| |
|
| |
| Each battery is composed of 4 cells with 2400mAh and 3.7V each, in a 4S2P fashion (two 4 series packs in parallel).

|
| |
|
| |
| To recharge RAPOSA batteries using ULTRAMAT 10:
| |
|
| |
| * Connect the ULTRAMAT 10 power plug to an available power socket;
| |

| |
| * Connect the battery plug to the ULTRAMAT 10 battery socket;
| |
|
| |
| * Press ENTER (the first button from the right) two times.
| |
|
