Problem with my Intellect battery

Hakken · August 15th, 2006, 17:15

Well I had just got a 9.6v 1400 mAH Intellect battery, charged it about 8 times already, discharged it the nite before gave it a full charge that for some reason didn't take long at all...I went to go on the field got about 800 rounds threw it before it died(i've gotten way more on it before) Now I go to charge it, it charges for about 2 mins, says its full and I can only get about 90 shots out now before it dies, any reason why it would be doing this? I also have a TLP Pulse charger.

Sounds like you blew your battery some how. What are your charger settings?

The battery isn't blown, a cell is. I have the same problem with a pack I bought from eHobbyAsia. Take the shrink wrap off and use a multimeter to test each individual cell for voltage. You'll eventually find one that's completely dead (shorted). Take it to Prairie Battery and have them swap out the cell. If they're the ones who built it for you, even better as you may be able to get away with warranty.
