3 cel lipo charger and 2 cell lipo batteries

Postby ogrejager » Wed Apr 30, 2014 6:15 pm

So, I've got a 3 cell lipo charger (NT Power's M9V1) for 11.1 batteries.

I can't charge 2 cell (7.4) lipo's with it, can I?

Looking at the pics and info on that charger, I would say no. 7.4v Lipo's have a 3-pin plug and 11.1v Lipos have a 4-pin plug for charging. That charger only has a 4-pin charging port for 11.1v Lipos.

I personally use this charger for my Lipos as it does both and has been a great little charger for the price.

Rob, I use something like this: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/stor ... ouse_.html

And the power cord is usually the same as the ICOM radio or Wouxun radio chargers.

Thanks all. I have a "not as smart" smart charger that works with 2 cell lipo's.

I am disappointed. I put a typo in the title of the thread and nobody called me--me--on it.

Oh, and the new batteries work great in the new AEG. :D
