Default 5000mah 11.1v lipo doesn't work out of the box :(

So I got my 11.1v 5000mah lipo from maxamps today and was very excited to see it arrive. Upon charging it my triton rejected it several times saying "battery voltage too low". A few more tries to get it to charge and finally it took to it. The voltage of the pack reported to be 8.83 volts [:'(]. I think possibly one of the cells is dead. How do I check each cells voltage through the hyperion taps?

I'm going to try running a couple more cycles through it and see if it stabilizes. For some reason the triton is only *****g out at 1.9 amps when it's set to 2.5?

Stop what your doing and send the pack back. Give me your full name and order number. We'll get a new one out to you ASAP. E-mail the info to [email protected] . Better to be safe.

I talked with Clint, Gave him the order ID # and he will contact you. He'll have you send it back for replacement.

If you have any further questions just let me know.


And thank you..
