Smoked 10x batt...
Danny,
I think I have smoked now two 10x batteries and don't know what I am doing wrong. I am using a SuperNova with the JR cable and using the auto setting to charge the battery at the field. Also, I can no longer charge from the wall charger (no light).
Any ideas....????

Sure did...I searched this forum and found a thread on how to jumper the connection at the fuse inside the battery case. I have done it on both and they are charging fine now.
This is a GREAT FORUM...more people should use it.

ninja95,
don't just jump the fuse - it's there for a reason! replace it with a fuse with the same rating.
also, I'd recomend not quick charging the pack anything above 1 amp - circuit board trace and power wiring in the radio is thin and you can overheat/burn out the wiring if a auto charger pumps up the amps to 3 amps or more.
