Energizer XP18000 LiPo battery pack for Stingray?
I have used an Energizer (XPAL) XP18000 rechargeable LiPo battery pack as backup power for my laptop for a year or so. It has great capacity (18000 mAh), has a nice battery level indicator, and is really light for the capacity. I paid about $130 for it.
I was at Office Depot the other day and noticed a couple of the same battery packs on their clearance table for $35/ea and snagged them!
I've attached images of the pack, and the specifications are as follows:
* Battery Cell: Lithium Polymer
* Power Capacity: 18000 mAh @ 5v
* Rated Input: DC 19V, Max 3500 mA
* Rated Output: DC 5-20V, Max 3500 mA
* Charge Time: ~4 Hrs
* Weight: 7.9 oz / 0.22 kg
* Dimensions:
* 7.1 (L) x 2.9 (W) x 0.9 (H) Inches
* 180 (L) x 73.66 (W) x 23 (H) mm
All ports can be used simultaneously.
I think this might be a great power pack for my Stingray, so I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to use this.
My first thought has been to use a LM317 regulator to bring the voltage down from 12V to 7.2V but I'm not sure what current the motors draw.
Any suggestions on the best way to use this?
