Hello All,
I need to discharge a lipo battery, which has had an incident involving being hit with a quadcopter prop. It is safe to discharge, but I don't have anyway of using a discharger because I do not have a balance connector on it anymore...
(You need the balance connector to discharge right? IDK, I am new to flying!)
I want to use the 12v lightbulb method, but I HATE the idea of the salt water method, for many reasons (which I won't list, since you have probably already seen them all).
Do I need to use the salt water method at the end?
Also- A while ago I saw someone solder the + / - leads together after discharging with a lightbulb, is this recommended?
Thanks,
Michael
