Would this be fixable?

Balance cord ripped out of the battery.
Still reads fine on the charger but I don't wanna risk charging it.
Retire it? It's 2 years old anyways. It was my first lipo.

Have someone experienced open the pack up and solder it back together. I have had that many times and it still works fine!

Yes..might need a different solder than what you have .

Yes, it's not easy, but doable if you are careful. Just need to pry the case apart knowing that it will be slightly damaged and you'll have to tape it back together after making the repair.

Here's a sample of one I did:

Would I be able to still charge it by just regular charging? `

 

[DavidB1126]

Nope, doesn't work. Just gonna toss it

You have to put the charger in LiPo mode which is different from BAL or balance mode in order to charge without the balance port hooked up
