You can try to restore those batts by completly discharging them (0.7v per cell) then charging them at 0.1 amps for hours (you have to do the math, basically the amp hours of the batts times 12). discharge at a low rate (1 amp or so) then repeat two times... it takes FOREVER, but there is a decent chance to bring them back.

Sometimes time is worth more than money and lipo's are a super nice upgrade anyhow.

Just my 2 cents...

EDIT: 3300mah should take about 40 hours to charge @ 0.1amps, and 3.3 hours to discharge at 1 amp).


If I could only draw what I see in my head, then afford to build it, and finaly get to play with it...
