So I Am About To Buy Another L

So I am about to buy another lipo battery for the EZ VB4, the one I was using for my EZ BV4 was a 7.4V, 1300mAh and I was wondering if it is safe to use a 11.1V, 1300mAh. I have read a few threads in this community but I just felt safer in asking if someone has used the 11.1V and has not had any issues burning anything.

Yes, you are ok to use an 11.1V battery with the EZ-Bv4

Please Note Be aware that the voltage you supply is what is outputed on the Digital pin power rails so you can only hook up servos and sensors that can either use 11.1V or have a regulator to drop that voltage down.

Jeremie is right - watch out for the voltage on the digital pin power. Please check the EZ-Robot datasheet on their website for their product here: https://synthiam.com/Community/Tutorials/18

Add that to your bookmarks :)
