What’s The Difference Between A BMS And PCM?

Before we go straight into comparing these protection boards, let me help define these first. Define the PCM, PCB and BMS Generally speaking, battery protection boards can be divided into two types. We usually refer to them as the PCM (Protection circuit module) or otherwise known as the PCB (Protection circuit board), and the BMS (Battery management system). A […]

The Difference Between Lipo And NiMH Battery

The biggest difference between NiMH and LiPo batteries is the chemical properties that enable the charging of the batteries. NiMH (Nickel-metal hybrid) uses nickel-based technology and LiPo (Lithium Polymer) batteries use a lithium-ion technology. What the battery types have in common is that they both store a certain amount of energy depending on their capacity. […]

Using Drones Under High Temperatures

Aerial photography enthusiasts try to shoot on sunny summer days, but flying under high temperatures for a long time can be a strain for their drones. Continuous flying under higher temperatures can easily cause serious heating of the equipment and may even cause battery failure or explosion and permanent damage to the drone’s equipment. Factors that affect the work of drones in high […]
