Lucky escape

Post by Lee »

Was charging my miniquad batteries last night.
I suddenly had that feeling, "this battery has been charging for a long time"
Well good thing I went to check.
One cell was at 4.6V :o
Turns our the neg balance wire had come loose, so wasn't charging properly.
I seem to have been lucky. Discharged that cell, and the IR is still even. Phew :shock:
