I can not take credit for the idea. It is being called a zip charger.
I used 20' of 18 guage speaker wire. Put a deans on one side and alligator clips on the other side. plug the battery in and connect the alligator clips to a deep cycle battery. You just watch the voltage (I used watt meter) until it hits about 11.5 volts and your done. This setup gave me a 6 amp charge rate. I think I will cut about 5' of the wire off so that I can get closer to 8 amp charge.
Just a warning wire length and guage are critical to the charge rate. Don't mess with it unless you have knowledge or comments from others. Oh this will only work with 3s packs. But that is fine for me.
Do you think 12 of these cells in the e-maxx will be to heavy?
