Battery safety guidelines
• Charge your Skydio batteries using only the Skydio supplied charging power adapter or dual charger accessory
(dual charger sold separately). We recommend using the provided power adapter; however, most USB-C power
adapters that are rated from 40W up to 100W should be compatible as well (charge time may be aected when
using non-Skydio chargers).
• While charging, the Skydio or Dual Charger should be in an open area as it is normal for the device to become
warm to the touch.
• TSA and FAA guidelines state that spare (uninstalled) lithium batteries must be transported in carry-on baggage
only. When traveling with Skydio in the United States, be sure to pack your batteries in your carry-on luggage
only. For more info, please see this FAA page. When traveling with Skydio outside of the United States, check
local regulations before transporting batteries.
• Do not use your Skydio batteries at temperatures below 32°F (0°C), as they will not function properly below that
temperature. If your batteries do get cold, warm them up in a room-temperature environment - DO NOT use
higher heat (hairdryer, etc.) to accelerate heating.
• Do not charge your batteries when ambient temperature is above 95°F (35°C) or below 50°F (10°C). Batteries will
not charge when too hot or too cold.
• If storing your batteries long-term, we recommend fully charging and discharging them every two months.
• Store your batteries at room temperature (71°F - 82°F / 22°C - 28°C) and away from any moisture (less than 75%
relative humidity).
• Do not use any batteries which have become dented or begin to split apart (after a crash or drop).
• Do not immerse the batteries, charger, or charging docks in water or other liquids.
• Lithium polymer batteries can leak, overheat, melt, release harmful gas, burst or ignite when exposed to heat,
water, and other liquids or when pierced, punctured or ruptured.
• If any substances from the battery pack get into your eyes, do not rub them. Seek medical attention
immediately.
• Take care when disposing of the battery pack. Contact your local waste facility to verify if lithium polymer
batteries are permitted in your regular waste. Many stores also oer free recycling.
• Never insert any other materials into the Skydio battery terminals.
