For other's reference, it was a Protec 100c. Great battery till I killed it.
Sorry to read that. It does seem odd that it will take a charge but not power up the esc. That I have not seen.

I killed one of those over summer. Forgot to unplug battery. Even with car off it drained so low that it would not take a charge
