I had a problem with my SkyRC iMax b6 charger not recognizing one of the cells in my Zippy Flightmax 4s LiPo battery during balance charging mode. I show you how I fixed the problem.
Five years on and this video is still saving people's batteries.
DOes it?? he didnt do anything.
Its a scam.
3 years later and it saved the day all my batteries were doing this and I have a game of airsoft tomorrow 😂 life saver dude 👌
Shout-out to you bro, my grandfather passed and left me a collection of his RC planes. $700 worth of batteries saved 🤟🏾💯
Works even on Imax B6AC clone. Even without ballance plug it still shows 5SER on my 6S lipo. Still put it on charge for like two minutes and then with ballance plug in it shows 6SER! Thanks for the video!
This helped!! Thank you so much! I switched it to just charge mode and left it charging for 5 mins then switched back to balanced charging and it worked!
I can't believe IT WORKED!! You are the man. THANK YOU!!!!
thanks man, this was awesome! cheers from Manila, PH
Saved a Christmas hovercraft project. Many thanks.
wuaooooo ami me sirvio este video muchas gracias me funciono mi batería solo detectaba 2 celdas y no 3 celdas , ahora me funcionan las 3 celdas muchas gracias
Haven't watched the full video yet, but my lipo was fine until one day. They're not cheap batteries, so I hope it isn't stuffed.
Worked perfect
Thanks man
Really appreciate it
It freaking worked bro, Thank-you!
It works on my 4S 5200mah battery! Thank u
Great vid, stuck mine in Life for 2 mins. Jump started it. 5000mah 4 cell. One cell is weak.
Glad it helped you our Stuart. Thanks for watching!
next time when you do this click the 3rd button over and see how the cells look for voltage per cell. if you have one cell way lower then the rest you have a dead sell or possible dead cell. sometimes a good balance charge can fix the cell sometimes not.
very very very nice..thanks br
it worked for me.... thanks man!!!
Thank you so much. Now if I can only figure out why 2 out of 2 times I have recharged, this has happened.
Thanks man it worked on my 3cell battery
I have had some success "recovering" individual cells that were discharged below the accepted minimum voltage by trickling a very small current (say 50ma) through them until they return to 3.0 volts or so - even at this low current it doesn't take long for the voltage to return to 3v. The issue is that the approach in this video puts the full charging current through the weak cell which will not improve its eventual life expectancy !
I have a turnigy charger. Very similar to yours. I have 3 batteries that all show only 3 cells. I have a battery meter function on the charger that confirms this. 0 volts. So I have a problem with the charger. Any ideas in this case? No a pin doesn't appear to be bent. Thank you
It working for me. Thanks !!!
Thank you so much
You're most welcome. Glad it helped.
I have a Cell Match Error, I have the same charger v2. When I followed your instructions I just get Cell Voltage Error when trying to charge as oppose to balance charge. Also, I do not get the extra message that says there are only 3 cells not 4. Is the battery fubar? It was fine but I ran it down to about 9.5v from 11.1?
Gonna try it...fingers crossed.
Thank you 🙏
Yooo this acc works thanks
Excelente video logre solucionar el problema
tienes mas informacion . porque yo no entendi ni papas y quiero checar mi bateria que segun 4 no cargan.
Still doesn't work ☹️ brand new battery I'm just getting into fpv plz help I'm panicking I have a 4s battery and I tried this it's still only showing 3
Same here. Putting it on the charge mode without the balance wires still shows 3 cells instead of the actual 4.
Good it work like this
with the regular charging mode my 6s lipo still shows up as 5s. Any ideas?
Hey Timo. That's odd. It shouldn't happen, because the charger doesn't have any idea how many cells you have during regular charging. It just does whatever it's set at. I once made the mistake of not switching it between 4S & 3S when I went to charge a battery, and it had me stumped for a second.
Hi Timo, I have the same problem. how did you solve?
@@MikesInventions hey bud, thanks for helping so many viewers out but mine is still show 3s instead of 4s. Can i sill go ahead to charge it at 3 cells and hope that the balance charging will eventually detect 4s?
You didn’t unplug the balance port, did ya? 😅
@@kevinchang4199 Any solutions
It worked for me. Thanks a lot!
no entendi ni madres .. como fue la cosa
I have one like this and everything works except, charge in balance mode and balance battery . Work couple seconds and then on the screen at mah shows 0 and stay like this hours . In simple mode charge in series reach's at the end, but in balance mode charge or balance battery do nothing . You tasted yours it's ok ? Thanks
I have the same problems, thanks
Thank you sooo much💗💗💗💗💗
It didn't work for me. Still in R3 a S4 any other tip?
Don’t know why, but still doesn’t work 😢
Is this the same as a “voltage invalid” issue?
I don't know Bolo. I haven't seen this issue come up. Maybe someone else on here will have your answer.
@@MikesInventions I put the battery to charge normally and after 10 seconds it stops charging and throws me out and doesn't charge. I don't understand why this happens?😓
Yes, same issue. Put it under a different battery type and knock it back into life over a very short time. Then input the proper details and balance charge as normal.
You legand thanks pall
Why after i start charging the amperes start going down till 0.1 A
Says balance Connect error for me
I experienced this kind of problem my 4s lipo,however i did different method to get it back into 4ser.the problem is the other two cells arent going up charged from 3.7 volts it stucked in 4.11 and 4.6 and the bad thing is that two cells went down rate..can help you me on this?
Legend!! 👌🏻
my charger is detecting the 4s as 3s in normal charging mode. any ideas how to fix it?
Can you fix it?
The pack had a BMS in it. U can't balance charge if there is a BMS. The bms will balance charge it
In my charger if i try to charge unbalanced mode a LiPo or LiIon battery with 2S, 3S, etc, i have an error message that the balanced cable is not connected. Do you have any idea how to fix it? This way I only can charge balanced mode bigger than one cell batteries :(
Thanks!!!
Hey, That does sound really odd. If it's in just regular Li-Po charge mode, there certainly shouldn't be an error message like that, because the charger doesn't care that the balance plug isn't there. I wish I knew how to solve that problem, but I do not. Hopefully someone else on here does. I can't even imagine why that error message comes up...
I have the same problem.
@@Srekwah Hello, I managed to solve my problem. Go into the System Menu -> Bal.Connection and set it to OFF
This was my problem.
I hope it'll help you :)
@@meszaros_zoltan it works! Thank you 🙏
The issue I'm having is that it will charge for 2minutes and the restart itself with no error message and nothing saying there's something wrong.
Thanks
to me from this error: CELL NOT MATCH. how can I solve it?
All went well until the microwave step. I miss my microwave. 😕
Most funny part of the video haha 😁
pretty sure u r not meant to[ use a microwave with nothing in it. thanks for the video though.
BOSS
Me and my team threw away like 3 batteries because of this since my dad was like "Nah these are dead".
I'll get them out of my fu*ked batteries drawer I Guess.
Thanks alot mate!
it not worked to 3cell
This method made my battery bloat 😭😭😭😭
So confusing the microwave sequence, you could use the phone or something else hhhhh
instructions unclear. pack is liquid after microwaving.
I think I over discharged my battery 😰
lmao, me too. Did you get a solution besides from getting a new one?
but this is not solution
Thank you so much
Thanks
