mrc 989 and hyperion lba10

[BrianG]

Here's the manual for the LBA10...

If your cells are that out of balance, it could take a LONG time to equalize with just the balancer. The balancer is going to apply a small (150mA IIRC) on the high cell(s) to get them down to the same level as the lower one(s). Depending on the capacity of the cells, it can take several hours.

If you know what you are doing, you could charge up the low cells individually directly from the charger through the balance plug (no more than 1A rate) with some sort of adaptor cable until they are closer to the volage of the higher cells. Then, hook up the balancer by itself to get them exact. Once balanced, you can charge normally. This will make things go a LOT faster, but if you're in no rush, just let the balancer do its thing.

brian , thanks so much for the post

i let it balance for a while and i am now an hour into charging @ 1 amp

going good, hopefully i can get this pack back in shape, thanks again
