Title: Charging of 2.65 Turnigy Tx LiPo Pack Post by: amit_delhi on June 21, 2012, 09:33:10 AM Hi,
Recently I bought a 2.65 Turnigy Tx LiPo pack for my FlySky 9CH Tx, I have a Turnigy 2S 3S Balance Charger. Direct 110/240v Input. Can I charge this Tx LiPO pack with my charger? Yesterday I tried charging it but after even after 10hrs charging the charger LEDs are not turning green. I check with Cell checker now it showing ALL voltage as 12.6, cell 1: 4.20, cell 2: 4.19 and cell 3: 4.20 Does it take more than 10 hrs to charge this LiPo pack? Is there any specific reason the charger LEDs are not turning green? Thanks, amit Title: Re: Charging of 2.65 Turnigy Tx LiPo Pack Post by: abhay on June 21, 2012, 09:54:27 AM check your charger using another 3s battery.. i too have faced the same problem,finally the charger was faulty :banghead:

If yes how much time it should take for the charger to fully charge this battery. PS: This question is related to both Tx and Battery so not sure if its okay in this section or should go to Battery and Charger section.
