Can't remember the brand, but it wasn't your typical brand. And no, the connector was just your typical center pin and sleeve type...

That has to be illegal!

the charger was set to 2s 4000. correct for the battery. is is th 606i and it never stopped charging cause the balance tap when hooked up must be the deciding factor on end voltage.
battery "looks" fine. i hooked it to a 12v test light bulb for gesh 2 hours? more? and it still has 8.7 volts in it. Oh and the thoought of putting it in a $1000 truggy to drive around was :-)
yea only a $70 pack i use in my started box that i dont use anymore cause i run BRUSHLESS!... i had 2 of them and taped them togeather to make a 4s pack as a practice pack and was charging them at work in a rush . ( dumb)
