Solved Short circuited

[OlliePackman]

So I short circuited a 3s 2200mah lipo by accident. Will it be OK?

check it with a volt meter to make sure you didnt discharge a cell too low and damage it, if your battery charger will top it off you should be ok
check the cells after charging to see if they are balanced

I haven't got a volt meter but I have a lipo checker which I think would tell me each cells voltage. I assume this would do?

yes that will do nicely...fingers crossed

Gets your attention dosen`t it, makes me jump like h-ll anytime I have accidentally done it, never have wrecked a battery though.

Yeah panicked just a bit. It actually melted part of the two plugs away, nearly fused together.
