My brother and I are buying new air-soft guns and the air-soft gun my brother is buying says it has a lipo battery. My friends have told me that for lipo batteries get a smart charger and i do not know why.
Li-Po batteries have their own chargers, regular smart chargers only charge the more common NiCd and NiMH type batteries. The Li-Po chargers have both "standard" and "smart" variants, and it's recommended that you get a smart Li-Po charger if you ever plan on purchasing those type of batteries.
Due to the Li-Po's powerful yet fragile nature, they can easily overheat and even catch on fire if left out on standard chargers for too long, damaging/destroying the battery's ability to hold a charge and could damage your household items around it. Smart chargers for Li-Po batteries significantly reduce this risk of getting destroyed if left in charging more than usual, but that doesn't mean you could leave your battery alone; always check on it routinely and see if it finished charging, then unplug after being fully replenished with energy.
And that is why you should get a smart charger, either for a Li-Po or any type of battery you have.
