thought--send it back anyway with the same explanation--I've had a couple of the
smaller packs just never come up properly--but they were in lower usage apps.

<DIV> I have a 3 cell lipo pack that has a balance charge plug and a
deans ultra for power, has it's own charger. This pack has never
measured at 12.6 volts, like my other 3cell packs generally at 12.54 to 12.45
not to bad but not really normal either. I never have been able to get a good
charge on it with my TP 1010 charger so I used the dedicated balance charger
that came with the micro heli kit. Here's the weird part had a crash and the
brushless motor had a problem recharged battery and after changing out motors
this battery wouldn't even arm controllers, checked with Wattsup meter only
showed 3.25 volts, ok so I have lost 2 cells, but then I decided to check
thought the balance tap with digital volt meter cell #1- 3.96, #2 - 4.07 #3 -
4.12 and a total from balance tap of 12.16, took deans off and same
readings.</DIV>
<DIV> I'm guessing a pinched wire from manufacture on a power lead
there's no damage to battery even after removing the heat shrink, I haven't
removed all tape for connectors.</DIV>
<DIV> I'm not worried about saving this 800MAH pack just very curious,
and the list seems a little slow.</DIV>
