Here is a weird one, I bought a Life pack from allerc for my 4pk cause I have a couple of coupons to use.

It came with rediculously sized plugs that are just inaapropriate for a TX battery, which this battery is labeled and sold for. I had to take off the shrink wrap and put on my own wires as 12 gauge is just a little too big for the futaba plug!

There is a PCB board in the battery which was unexpected but upon reading the paper that came with the battery it is so the battery can be charged from within the radio and with standard NiMH chargers.

The problem I have is I cannot get the battery to work. I went to cycle the battery and the chargers tells me the voltage is too low to cycle.

When I charge it says it is full even though it is not.

Additionally, when I attach a multimeter to the futaba end the cell reads 6.9 volts but for some reason, the radio will not turn on!

Should I just take out the pcb board? Not really sure what is going on here. This is the battery in question.
