THANK YOU
Thank you for purchasing the Venom Stronghold Solo battery-charging box. The
Stronghold was designed as a fire containment-charging box to help protect
surrounding surfaces and property from damage or destruction as the result of a
catastrophic battery failure. This design is meant to help control the release of gases
and fumes in a safe manner if a failure occurs. It is not a guarantee against damage,
but is meant to greatly reduce damage to surfaces and property. Be responsible and
observe proper charging techniques.
The use of the Stronghold Solo does not eliminate the risks of a lithium polymer battery
fire. Users should always follow the safety warnings, instructions and guidelines
provided by their battery and charger manufacturers in connection with this product.
1. Always use a charger specifically designed for the chemistry of the battery to be
charged. Never use NiCD or NiMH type chargers to charge LiPO batteries. Never
use a LiPO type charger to charge NiCD or NiMH batteries. Failure to do so will
damage the batteries and may cause fire and personal injury. When charging
NiMH batteries, you must use a linear charger with peak detection. Do not use a
timer charger. Charge battery at no higher than a 1C charge rate. To calculate your
battery’s 1C charge rate, divide the battery capacity (mAh) by 1000.
Example: 3000mah ÷ 1000 = 3amps, 4200mah ÷ 1000 = 4.2amps, etc.
2. Do not charge batteries on or near wood, cloth, carpet, in your model, or on or near
any other flammable material. Keep a chemical fire extinguisher nearby incase of
fire.
3. Never leave batteries unattended while charging. Always observe batteries when
charging so that you may react quickly to any problems that may occur.
4. If a battery is deformed, swollen or appears damaged, DO NOT CHARGE. Follow the
disposal instructions on pg. 3 to properly and safely dispose of the battery.
5. Any time you have an accident with your model or if the battery swells “balloons” or
if the battery exceeds temperature guidelines, follow these safety steps:
a. Immediately remove the battery pack from your model or charger.
b. Place the battery in a non-flammable, well ventilated area.
c. Observe the battery for 30 minutes from a safe distance.
d. After 30 minutes, if the pack appears stable, is not swollen and does
not show any signs of damage, return the battery pack to normal
use with caution.

IMPORTANT (CONTINUED)
6. Do not let exposed battery wires touch each other. This may cause the
battery to short and potentially cause a fire.
7. Store your batteries in a cool, dry place between 40-80 Fº / 4-26 Cº. LiPO
batteries must be stored at 3.75-3.80 volts per cell to maintain capacity and
pack life. Do not store fully charged for longer than one week to prevent
damage.
8. Do not assemble unmatched or dissimilar LiPO, NiCD, or NiMH cells.
9. Store battery packs out of the reach of children and pets.
LIPO DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS
1. Discharge battery pack to 2.5 Volts per cell or less.
2. Fill a bucket with enough water to submerge the battery pack completely.
3. Add salt to the water until no more salt will dissolve; the water is now
saturated with salt.
4. Place the battery pack in the bucket and leave submerged in the salt water
solution for 24 hours.
5. Remove the battery pack from the salt water and test the voltage.
6. If the voltage does not read 0.0 Volts, re-submerge and re-test until the
voltage reads 0.0 Volts.
7. Once the battery pack has been discharged to 0.0 Volts, it is safe to discard
in the trash.
NOTE FOR USE
The Stronghold Solo was designed to accommodate Lithium Polymer batteries
(LiPO) up to 60-Watt Hours. Batteries larger than 60 Wh will not be properly
contained due to the expansive volume of Lithium Batteries.

1) Set up your Stronghold Solo and battery charger on a non-flammable surface away
from flammable objects, chemicals, or other potentially hazardous materials.
2) Insert the charge lead and the 2-6S balance block, if applicable, through the power
lead hole in the Stronghold Solo. Power to the charger should be turned off during
this step to prevent the possibility of shorting the wires if metal connectors touch
the sides of the Stronghold Solo.
3) Turn On power to your charger.
4) Connect battery to the charge leads and place inside Stronghold Solo.
5) Close the lid to the Stronghold Solo and secure with the lid latch.
6) Start charge procedure of the battery. Do not leave batteries unattended while
charging. Consult the charging instructions that came with your battery.
WHAT TO DO IF A BATTERY DOES FAIL
1) Allow the battery to finish the failure completely before approaching the box. Fumes,
flames and other chemicals are quite hazardous if inhaled or ingested. Be prepared
with a chemical fire extinguisher to put out any remaining parts of the battery. Allow
everything to cool down before handling.
2) Remove all power to the charger that was in use.
3) Wearing rubber gloves and eye protection, remove the remains of the failed battery
from the Stronghold Solo. Dispose of them in a plastic bag and place them in the
trash.
4) The Stronghold Solo can be re-used. Battery residue and soot can be washed out
with ordinary soap and water.
