Title: Result of Overnight charging Nicds
Post by: sbajare on March 22, 2017, 09:29:49 AM
Hi,

A group member plugged in his Lipo charger power supply in his TX for charging. The result was devastating.
See pics.

He did not care to see the specs of the power supply and the nicds were simply overcharged and fried in the process.

Luckily no fire hazard.

I prefer to charge the battery ISOLATED, and in days, continuous watching till charging. If ay emmergency job comes, stop charging and isolate battery. Else u may got an damaged NiCd or puffed LiPO.
