So i wanted to know for my self
Why this thing is called smart lol
That's the only reason why i purchased the set


Well it supposedly discharged it self if its fully charged and not being touched or uaed for morethan 24 hrs
i guess thats cool for lazy forgetful guy like me hahah


I have encountered my first problem
With the spectrum smart battery and charger

as you can see on the first picture
Somethings wrong with the balance port
And the second picture not showing the fist cell
The third licture i used the same battery on the second charged port and everythings working
So the battery is good but the charger is culprit

Currently in touched with amain hobbies with this problem
They wnated me to send those pictures to see

I just purchased this too not even a month yet
 
looks to me you have some connections on balance port that are loose. Check those tiny tube connectors.. I made a small tube tighteners made from a cuticle cutter trimmed down with Dremel
 
Only the first balance port have this problem
I charged the same battery on the other side and it works just fine

I wouldnt know how to do that
I think I'm better off letting them know qhays going on
Its lessthan a month and used it like 3 times yet
 
I decided to return the charger
My question now is
Can i use my
Hitec x2 charger to charged the s.art battery
