Please excuse any stupid questions. I need help charging a Receiver pack for a nitro buggy. (Mugen MBX5R, w/ Airtronics M12 Radio). When I say help I mean step by step , photos appreciated, explanations for dummies.
Here is what I have. Please advise on settings, wire connections, wire connectors, etc. with step by step. I've struggled with this and can only assume I am either missing some hardware, have purchased the wrong hardware, or more likely not able to comprehend the process. Admittedly I am not well versed on the charger either. Thanks for any help.
BATTERY:
LRP VTEC RX Life Line 6.6v LiFe Hump pack model 430301
Connections:
In addition to the power connectors, you will also find so called balancer connectors at you LiFe-packs. Those
connectors comply with the EHR - standard and have a three-core cable on any 2S LiFe-pack. Those connectors are
used for balancing the single cells of a battery pack to an equal voltage level. For standard operation on the transmitter
or receiver the balancer is not necessary. Nevertheless, it must not be cut or removed by any means.
Balancing-port (2S - 7.4V Packs)
Black (battery -) = Cell 1-
Brown (call conn.) = Cell 1+ (Cell 2-)
Red (battery +) = Cell 2+
Max Chg Current 1C, Max Chg Voltage 7.20V
CHARGER:
Revolectrix Cell Pro PowerLab 8 Charger w/
Revolectrix 24V-DC55A Power Station
and Revolectrix MPA Parallel Adapter
