How To Pronounce LiPo
 

aaahhh I get it now! really been struggling with that :thumbsup:

Oh yeah, I must do your refund.

ok................ lol

Thank Si. My life is now complete...

just to be different i'll stick with how i've always pronounced it: leepo :p

Si, think you have to much time on your hands fella :p Has the video camera broken or something ! :woot:

And being Lithium-Polymer I suppose that means its Liiiiiiii-thium then is it?
I think not sir!!!

To not be a bounder, you should always pronounce it in the Queens own.
So its lith-ee-uhm; therefore LiPO = leh-po

pip pip.
top drawer. :)

is't he a car designer lol :p

No no, when it Lithium is it Lee but when it is made into LiPo, it become Lie.

LiPo as in Like-o, Lime-o, Lite-o, Lilo.

:D

Si - its a miracle you could understand me when I ordered my "leeeeePoh" from you then :p

I stand corrected! :yawn:

on the periodic table of elements the symbol for Lithium is Li as in El-Eye when said aloud. sounds like lie so Lie-Po

pmsl :D

What about NiMh and NiCd :p

Brilliant! I'll do them too!

Can you clear up the Scon or Scone one too please fella :D

F'sure!

I'm not doing the whole jam before cream thing though.

i presume uve heard a few alternatives :confused:

My mate at work keeps calling them lip - oh's, cracks me up every time :lol:

And while we're at the whole pronunciation thing, when I used to work in a model shop we'd have people come in and talk about fut-aba transmitters. I always thought it pronounced like future, so few-tar-ba, as opposed to the fut fut fut noise a tractor would make ( sorry can't work it out phonetically ), and them someone I spoke to at a track recently said ag-ama instead of the Ag-arma that I thought it should be pronounced like.

However the best one, again while I was working at the model shop, we went up to the Hobby Company. I've done RC since I was about 10, and in all that time I've only ever heard people pronounce Tamiya one way... until we turned up at the hobby company and he introduced products by Tam ear... I think some of this is getting lost in translation here so I'll get me coat :blush:
