Default RE: Hobbico Voltwatch w/6.0v battery issue?

Scooty,

If this is normal for the 6.0v to flicker the other green lights, then it would be difficult to know when your battery is starting to get low. I guess I'll have to test it more this week to see if the yellow "caution" light get brighter, as well as the red "fail"light. I guess I thought the left green light would stay solid like my 4.8v setting did. Thanks for you response.

Jetmecho5,

I used a milliamp meter. I acutally disconnected my battery from the reciever to get a reading. I normally don't do this on a regular basis, but since I was having trouble with the voltwatch I was testing just about everything to figure out the problem. I do have to re-bind the receiver when I do this.

Thanks
Steve
