I left mine plugged in last night (XRT/max6g2/6700 4s) A cell dropped to 2.8 and my ezpeak dual live charger light indicated voltage to low like yours. 7 seconds on my 12v 2a trickle charger w/ some wire leads I made to slide in got me going again! I appreciate your upload!

Wow, you're amazing I am so glad I found your you tub video. I left my Traxxas 5000 lipo plug in my unlimited Desert racer and went to plug them into the charger and they were dead, the charger would not recognize them. So after viewing your video I went to get garage and got my auto charger and put it on 2 amps put 2 Allen ranch into the battery and red to red and back to back and count to ten. They I when and plug them into the Traxxas charger and the both are now recognized and when through a full charge.... Thanks you save me 250.00.

So my batteries were super drained and I followed your instruction. I had to leave mine on trickle charger for quite a bit as it was only showing 2 cells on the batteries. They are now charging on the ez peak charger! I used a $20 everlasting 1A battery charger and maintainer from Walmart with some taped alligator clips connected to the charger clamps.
@fcost86043 жыл бұрын
I bought this same charger at Walmart today. I’m finding it’s taking a lot longer. How long did you connect it for? I’m going on about a minute and only 3 of 4 cells are charging 0.0-2.1-1.7-1.4

Whats happening is 1 of the cells has gone under 3.2v. Charging in nimh mode doesn't have the safety checks like lipo mode and just brings that cell over 3.2v so lipo charger can now see that cell and charge it

@@jack95670 I tried changing mode too with the 6700 batteries. No luck. Maybe because of the ID connectors? Wonder if Traxxas would do a battery swap? I only ran my Xmaxx a few times and didnt realize leaving the batteries in the rig would drain them to the point of the charger not recognizing them.

Hey buddy, thank you for posting this video! I just purchased the SMac and I got 4 6700 traxxas batteries for it! Unfortunately I also left two batteries connected on the truck for about 4 weeks without using the truck. Now I have the same problem like your batteries!
