<DIV>I've gone without balance taps and dialed the cell count down on the charger so that it would start the charge process and watched things like a hawk and kept the pack in a ceramic pot with a lid until I got the voltage up high enough that it would start a balance charge for the correct cell count. (Had to start at 2S for a 6S pack!) then I had the charger cycle the packs 4 times with a max draw of 3A on a 45C 5000 pack. I've flown that pack about 10 times now in my Splendor and it seems healthy though the IR is slightly higher than one would expect for a pack that has effectively 15 cycles on it, I usually need to put a pack through 50 cycles before the IR hits that level. </DIV>

<DIV>For people who don't use arming plugs, this is what happens when you power up the ESC but don't give it a radio signal to keep it 'disarmed', get called in for dinner and forget about it being plugged in for 8 hours! The ESC discharged the 6S pack to 6v by the time I snapped awake in the middle of the night and ran down to unplug the pack!</DIV>

<DIV>Mike, I flew a pack twice at a contest. Well, at least I tried to until the 5th maneuver. I ended up putting 5150 mah back into a 5000 pack.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Using a nicad charger for a little while might work(15 minutes). I hooked up my TP1010 without the balancer for 15 minutes. I then plugged in the balancer only for a while and eventually the 1010 hooked up and I'm still flying the pack after 45 flights.</DIV>
