The 3S 12.6V Lithium Battery Power Display Module is a compact, easy-to-use battery capacity indicator designed specifically for 3-cell (3S) lithium battery packs. It provides a clear, visual indication of remaining battery capacity using a row of blue LEDs, making it an essential accessory for battery-powered projects, RC vehicles, power banks, and portable electronics.

The module is designed for 3S lithium battery packs with a nominal voltage of 11.1V and a full charge voltage of 12.6V. It continuously monitors the total pack voltage and illuminates the appropriate number of LEDs to indicate the current charge level — typically 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. This allows you to quickly assess whether a battery pack needs charging without using a multimeter.

The module features high-brightness blue LEDs that provide clear visibility in various lighting conditions. The compact PCB design with mounting holes makes it easy to integrate into battery packs, RC models, and custom enclosures. The module operates directly from the battery pack it monitors, requiring no separate power supply.

Installation is simple: connect the module’s B+ and B- pads to the battery pack’s positive and negative terminals, and the LEDs will immediately indicate the charge level. The module includes reverse polarity protection to prevent damage from accidental incorrect connection.

The 3S power indicator module is widely used in RC vehicles, drone battery packs, DIY power banks, portable speakers, robotic systems, electric bicycles, and any application where 3S battery status monitoring is important. It is also popular in educational projects for teaching battery management and voltage monitoring.

Whether you are building a custom 3S battery pack, maintaining a fleet of RC batteries, or adding battery status indication to a portable device, the 3S 12.6V Lithium Battery Power Display Module provides a reliable, cost-effective solution. It is suitable for individual makers, students, and businesses purchasing in bulk for product development or educational programs.

Usage

Getting Started

  1. Identify the battery pack terminals — Locate the positive (+) and negative (-) terminals of your 3S lithium battery pack.

  2. Connect the module — Solder or connect the module’s B+ pad to the battery pack positive terminal and B- pad to the battery pack negative terminal. Observe correct polarity.

  3. Observe the display — The LEDs will immediately illuminate to indicate the current charge level:

    • 1 LED = 25% or less

    • 2 LEDs = 25–50%

    • 3 LEDs = 50–75%

    • 4 LEDs = 75–100%

  4. Charge as needed — When the display shows low capacity, recharge the battery pack using an appropriate 3S lithium battery charger.

LED Indication Reference

LED Count Charge Level Pack Voltage (Approx.) Action
1 LED ≤ 25% 9.0V – 10.2V Recharge soon
2 LEDs 25–50% 10.2V – 11.1V Monitor
3 LEDs 50–75% 11.1V – 12.0V Good
4 LEDs 75–100% 12.0V – 12.6V Full

Typical Applications

  • RC vehicles — Monitor battery level before and during operation
