Battery Checker
Posted: Fri Jan 02, 2015 3:55 pm
Ok.. So I was not using a battery checker at all when I first started out in this hobby. Several months in I picked up small, simple, cheap lipo checker... Pictures below... Did a good job for the past.. Almost 2yrs I guess.. Lately tho it's been omitting the 6th cell upon reading the voltage.. Guess I've just thrown about enough(being a cheap one I abused I'm sure) it's just worn out.. So.. On my way home from work (on my day off) a couple day ago I stoped by my local HT to pick up some heat shrink, sats, & check on a telem unit... I saw this... Futaba battery checker.. It's awesome.. It'll read ALL batteries RC. It'll break down and display each cell.. Give u the usage amount left in the pack.. Just an awesome tool. A little more expensive than the the Hitec checker.. But has a few more capabilities. Recommended!
