Charging saddle packs

1 Attachment(s)

I have my first saddle packs and just want to make sure I charge them right.
Can I charge them in a series like this chart shows?

Yes, in series, which makes a single 2S 7.4V pack. You also connect the middle balance plug to the crossover wire.

Got it!! A wiring harness came with the Lipos it has a balance plug built in!

Thank you!

Yes charge either in series, or charge each individual pack as a 1S. Charging as a 1S can speed up the charge time slightly, if you have a dual port charger.
