Hi guys,
I discovered something interesting yesterday. I purchased a turnigy 3 cell 25C 1300mah battery over the weekend from our local HK vendors. I had two flights with this battery and when I wanted to charge it, the charger gave me an error "low voltage" which according to what i have seen means that the cells are below a certain voltage and the charger refuses to charge the battery.
I then remembered what a good friend of mine told me. Being a 3 cell battery , i switched the charger to 2 cell and restarted the charging process. It started the charge and finished about 30 seconds later. During this time i ketp my eye on the voltage per cell and lo and behold the voltage came back to above 3.7 volts.
I then put the charger back onto 3 cell, and the battery charged without any problems. The battery is now back to normal and i did not loose another battery, i just had to share this with you as it saved me a buck or two.
