Don't throw away your LiPo, revive it!

This trick is for batteries that will not charge due to the voltage being too low, and the charger will not initiate a charge cycle. Always charge your LiPo batteries in a fireproof bag and do not leave them unattended.
See our extensive line of LiPo packs at: www.rcjuice.co...
Please contact us if you have any questions: www.rcjuice.co...

@DigitalConfusion1, you can revive the battery if it's still in good physical condition. Just pay close attention to it and follow the instructions in the video. I've left mine plugged in many times and have had great success reviving every single one of them.

Glad to hear it worked!! The charger sends current just the same, no matter what mode it is in. The only difference is the measured voltage at which it stops charging, the only danger is if you set it to chage on NiMh mode and then walk away and forget about it, it would overcharge the battery and could destroy it or even cause a fire. There is no danger in charging it for a while in NiMh mode as long as you pull it off before it reaches full voltage.

Thank you. I am new to rc and accidentally left a spanking new spektrum 2S plugged into my car for a week. It showed Dead dead dead. I called my local shop and was told it’s trash. To be fair, I was warned. I caught sight of my battery in the trash for two weeks and said “there’s got to be a way”. Sure enough. I am at this moment recharging my smart battery with sensor lead after trying this hack. I do understand the hesitation on a shop not wanting to hand this out. Liability and all. And the ineptitude of society at large. Bottom line. IT WORKED for me.

If a cell is bad then there is no reviving it, a good indicator is one cell have a very different reading than all other cells. If all cells are very low then the pack is likely just over-discharged and this will work, but if one cell is much lower than the rest then unfortunately the pack is likely toast.

Can you make a video showing how your HobbyStar 120 amp esc works with sensored and sensorless motors? I have one of your 120 amp ESC's that doesn't work correctly with a sensorless motor. When it set the esc to "forward with pause then reverse" the esc only allows me to use the brake once while the truck is moving forward at any speed. If I use the brake more then once the truck will try to go into reverse and this causes the truck to try and lockup the back wheels or even make the wheels spin in reverse. My 80amp HobbyStar esc allows me to use the brakes for as many times as I want and will actually pause when the truck comes to a complete stop and then I'll be able to use reverse.

Hi, my C1 is 3.7, C2 shows ZERO, C3, 3.7 can i still use the same trick? charge with NiMh at 2.0 amp? how do i know if its working or its not working? If its working the voltage should continue to climb til 11v? and not working if it continues to linger at 7.4-7.5v?

Unfortunately, that is most likely not revivable. When all cells are low then the pack health is usually OK and they just need to be charged up a bit, but when 1 cell is at 0 and the others are at a nominal voltage that sounds like a bad cell altogether. Sorry....

I’m new to air soft. I got a new battery put it in the gun shot it a few times and left the battery in the gun for 4 days. I came back I wanted to shoot it and it wouldn’t shoot. I decided to charge it and left it over night charging and the light keeps blinking red on the smart charger or the Balance. Now it’s been 2 days and it’s still blinking red and anytime I plug it in it doesn’t work. What do I do?

If you are able to set the charger to NiMh mode then this trick will work for you, but some basic chargers do not have this option and you would not be able to do this.

Thanks for the video. Do you have a tutorial to revive a multi cells lipo with only one cell that the voltage is too low?. I have a 3S 1500mah that only read as 2S by my balance charger. Turned out one cell have less than 2v in it
@RCJuice
@RCJuice 3 жыл бұрын
There is no way to do this with a standard Lipo charger, but charging it in NiMh mode will charge all cells. If you have only 1 cell that is lower than the rest then it is likely a bad cell and may not be able to be revived, this trick is more for overly-discharged packs on which you'll see low voltage across all cells.

How can i charge my battery in a lipo bag when the leads are so short? I guess i cant put the whole charger inside the bag
@RCJuice
@RCJuice 2 жыл бұрын
The bag usually ends up right next to the charger, even the shortest leads typically give you enough length to do so.

How to fix a 6S LiPo battery when the Tenergy display reads "R: 5s S:6S" ? Battery didn't cutoff on the battery and went below charge. Now, the R: parameter shows 5S. any ideas to fix it?
@RCJuice
@RCJuice 2 жыл бұрын
That sounds like there is a complete failure of 1 cell on the pack. This trick is for when all cells have been discharged too far, but it sounds like in your case you have 1 cell that is actually damaged or completely dead and unfortunately, this cannot fix that.

If a cell is actually "bad" this will not work, this is for when cells have simply been discharged too far. If you have a pack where one cell is in a much different state than others then that is usually a bad cell and it cannot be fixed. If you are charging it in NiMh mode for a few minutes and the voltage does not come up then it may be damaged, but try charging and discharging a few times for 5 minutes each time to see if you can "wake up" the pack, sometimes it works.

Start by checking individual cell voltages once it starts to slow down to see if the pack is balanced. if all cells are close, then it's possible the battery is just worn out.

In NiMh mode balancing should not be an issue since they do not have balance plugs, make sure you do not have the balance plug connected to the charger and ensure you are in NiMh mode.
