Lithium Ion battery

I did not realize this was a Litium Ion battery and because of the 2.4V rating on the side of the can thought it was a new type of ni-mh battery and charged it with a ni-mh charger and possibly damaged the L-Ion battery. I still have a new Stryker in the box and will analyze this new battery Tech now that I know what it is.

Electronics companies have been using back up batteries like that for many years, just being Li-ion is new-ish. Although they did come in many shapes and sizes.

I have never seen them used in r\c models. Industrial applications yes. This is a first in r\c model with LION as far as I know.
This is the latest generation of LIon and has a voltage of 2.4V not 4.2 V like a Lithium polymer.

What battery does your little car have in it? I'm sure my 64th cars don't have rechargeable batteries in the conventional sense.

What's this then if it's not a "little car"???
As for "non conventional rechargeable batteries," I've seen little batteries that looked like electrical components decades ago, they may not have been Li-ion back then, but they were non conventional in the sense they didn't look like batteries. And, just because this is the first time you've seen these style Li-ion batteries used in a toy, it doesn't mean to say they're not more widely used, as the tech has been around for ages. And that's why I asked what battery you had in your "little car"
And therefore trying to have an informative conversation with you.
So, quite frankly, where you get that I'm being condescending from, I don't know?

Quote you; "Well this one will not have that problem as the battery looks like a large electrolytic capacitor. New to me."
Which made me mention that batteries looking like electrical components have been around ages. I stated this irrespective of what battery type.
As this topic is about new tech, as in a Li-ion battery looking like an electrical component, I asked about your "little car" that you pictured out of curiosity, as to what was powering it. The reason being, I have some miniature RC cars, a truck and some little robots stored away, it made me curious as to what they may have as a power source.
You didn't start this thread off with any mention of a new chemical composition for the battery, just what it looked like and that it was a Li-ion, although you missed the first i out. This "New" chemical composition is your latest revelation, which wasn't mentioned when I was trying to have a conversation with you.
Perhaps some subjects bring up other questions and opinions, or are you in the belief that that is not allowed?
Can you hear ME now?
Never mind, I'll go and take my own little toys apart and find out for myself. Ciao.

LOL Ok man, easy now. Like I said in the last post, there seems to be a communication gap and I am trying to work with it 
I'm betting the "micro RRC cars" that you have, (see what I did there
) , are mostly if not all, ni-mh powered. Sorry I just assumed you knew that. I am into to this pretty deep as a retired Electrical Designer and sometimes forget not everyone that is a RRC enthusiast does not take everything apart (strait away) like I do. I use to get in trouble a lot as a kid for doing that.
