Hi
I have a 6v hump pack and left it on in my car and forgot about it for about a week.

At first it wouldnt charge as my charger would not detect it so with it connected to the charger i stuck a good pack on which it would detect and started charging and remove the good pack it charged up and alarmed out as it does but when i tryed to use the batt it was flat ???

so i charged it again and tested it on a meter and it was -3.8v the pollarity had reversed

So i stuck it on a motor and drained it completelly and recharged it and it But this time it did not peak out as it should i metered it and its reading 7.4V?? drained it again and recharged it this time it peaked and alarmed out as it should so metered it and its now 8.2V

SO the question is should i bin it or use it and see if it stablises???

Thanks for any replies

I would not use it in flight, but might try it in something else familiar or "test" it with a cba or other dischargeing device or a cycler with digital dischargeing display .
