So I left my 5000 3S in my truck plugged in for like a week, so now what I have ladies and gentlemen is a 4.01v $85 paperweight, nice. Lesson learned.

You can actually plug it into a battery tender for about 2 min then plug back into your RC charger and bam! Just runs them to low for your regular charger to pick up the identification of battery. Don't throw that paper weight away! It's still good!

Dude, thank you so much for this video, I was somehow unaware that the Balance mode was only literally to balance the volts between the cells, so i had been using it to charge it and, never actually fully charged the battery, so that explains the lack of speed..... thanks for the video again, you likely saved my battery

A balance charge is fully charging, just in a way that takes longer because of the balancing, but it will make your battery last longer

I got a question for you. So I balance charged my new battery took it out and used it about 30-45 minutes. Do I balance charge it and then put it in storage mode? Or does storage mode balance the battery?
@combarccrawlers3948
Жыл бұрын
I was told that balance charge should be done approximetly every 10 charges. I would think that storage charge is good enough for putting the battery away. In my opinion balance charge should be done before charging the battery and using it. Also I hear that its not good to leave a fully charged battery fully charged for roughly more than 3 days because its not healthy for the battery either. Thanks for the comment, feel free to reply if in need of more info that I could help you with. 😀
