Default Hitec x4. Low voltage error
My Hitec charger gives me an error code, Battery voltage low. Is there any way charge this battery? I hate to scrap a battery because of this.

Possibly thinking about using NiMh chemistry setting to bring up voltage on a LiPo pack? Only do it until voltage of cells is above 3v/cell, then try a balance charge again.

How low did the voltage drop? If a LiPo pack was discharged too much, battery health could have been diminished greatly.

The batteries have not been charged for a few months. They were fine when they were last used. I probably did not store them correctly.

I tried your suggestion and it worked! Thanks a lot. I just saved 3 older batteries.
