Lipo battery help

[codysouth95]

I am very new to the lipo world and rc world I have a venom 5000 30c battery and my charger is a thunder power tp-1010c with a tp-210v balancer. My question is why does my balancer start going crazy beeping at me when it’s only been charging for about 15 minutes with the yellow status light lighting up? Should I be doing something different I charge them at 5a and the charger doesn’t throw any codes so I’m not sure what’s going on! Any advice?

It’s time for a new charger, I recommend the Hitec RDX1 pro, your charger could potentially start a fire, get a new one ASAP!

You need to read the manual and figure out what the beeps and the LED flashes are telling you.

As a side note you really should get a modern charger. That thing is practically an antique. Id recommend the Hitec X2 AC Plus. Its even on sale right now at tower hobbies.

Heres a copy of your manual.
