Getting a Charger: How Many Watts Do You Need?
One of the decisions you need to make before getting a new charger is how much power you need.

To decide if a charger is […]
Getting Great Aerial Shots Over Water
Very early on, I became fascinated with the possibility of using drones to create island-wide panoramas and unique perspectives of the beautiful Hawaiian Islands.

But getting started with drones is not as straightforward as you might think. It takes a little bit of studying, complying with the regulation and most importantly – a lot […]
Charging several battery packs at once
Lithium battery chemistry is volatile. If one battery can catch fire and cause a lot of damage because of improper charging, imagine what several batteries hooked together and charging in close proximity to one another can do if anything goes wrong. Parallel charging might sound like a convenient way to charge multiple batteries at the same time, but it can […]
