<div>I've had a few problems with my 2 cell receiver lipo's similar to what you explain I think. I use Astro chargers, always with a balancer. It goes into what's called BtFault. I have found that I need to discharge the pack and charge it back up to get it to take a charge. This is with A Thunder Power 1320(over and over) and a Flight Power 800(Once). The 1320 does and almost never takes a full charge without going into the fault and it's only got maybe 10 cycles on it. </div> <div>Maybe try to discharge if your charger has the option to take it down to the appropriate level, then charge it back up. Maybe you got a bad pack. I'm thinking this is the case with my Tp pack, the Fp now seems fine. </div> <div> </div> <div>Look for your pic on the cover of the Kfactor this month Anthony!!</div> <div><BR>Good luck </div> <div> </div> <div>Chris<BR><BR><B><I>Anthony Abdullah <aabdu@sbcglobal.net></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq

The Deans connector and balance plug came soldered on the shrink wrapped pack. The problem is I can NOT charge it Every time I hook the battery to my E-Station BC-6 charger I get an alarm and a message that says "connection break". I have checked and double checked the connections and the settings and nothing seems to help. Every time it's the same, I hold down the start button, the charger checks the pack then goes into connection break mode.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>What I have checked and tried:</DIV> <DIV>Polarity is correct</DIV> <DIV>Tried charging at lower and higher rates with exactly the same results</DIV> <DIV>Plugged it into the plane an all servos and the motor
work </DIV> <DIV>Tried charging a similar pack (different brand) on the same settings and it works</DIV> <DIV>In all cases I am charging through the Deans connector</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I don't know what else to try. if anyone has a suggestion I would love to hear it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks</DIV> <DIV>Anthony</DIV> <DIV>NSRCA #759<BR><BR></DIV>_______________________________________________<BR>NSRCA-discussion mailing list<BR>NSRCA-discussion@lists.nsrca.org<BR>http://lists.nsrca.org/mailman/listinfo/nsrca-discussion</BLOCKQUOTE><BR><p>
