Hello my name is Mike. How are you today? I m a sales advocate for
Horizonhobby.com. How can I assist you with a great purchase today? Is there something in particular you had in mind?
well i was looking into the some wall chargers and what would be good for my 3 cell battery for the apprentice and my Cessna 2cell battery cause it seems the wall charger i am using takes the 3 cell battery 5 hours before indicating full charges and my batteries are getting bulky
Mike G.
Which charger are you currently using?
its a gt power balance charger indicating imput voltage 100-240 v ac max current 3x900ma
the other b3 compact charfer max charge 3-800ma
Mike G.
is that good for a 22002 20c battery and the eflite 3s11.1v3200mah battery that comes with the apprentice
Mike G.
is the charge adaptor separate from the dynamite charger or does it come with it
Mike G.
Yes. You will need that lead.
ok and if i were to use that charger how long does it take to charge the batteries is it supposed to take over hour of charging
Mike G.
That is a great charger. Especially for the price.
now on the adaptor it shows the connection like the eflite apprentice battery does that plug into the battery itself or does it go into the dynamite plus cause on the 2200 battery the connection is different from the 3200 eflite and the chargers i have the balance connectors plug into the chargers
Mike G.
The blue end goes to the batt. The balance plug goes in the very front of the charger.
Doesn't all the batteries you have come with the blue end?
ok so if the balance goes into the front that i don't really need the extra adaptor i can just plug the balances into the front right
Mike G.
ok i just saw on dynamite charger in the picture with the red and black cable connecting to the charger and at the end it has that black rectangle thing on it what is that used for
Mike G.
ok and the balances depending on the type can go in there and check the balance
Mike G.
ok i have one that came with the jr bc580digital battery tester and i tried to put the balance in there and the eflite 3200 battery balance does not fit in any slots
Mike G.
What does that battery go to?
Mike G.
the 3200 eflite battery for the apprentice
Mike G.
Mike G.
What does not fit the blue end or the balance end?
Mike G.
There is something wrong. Please take a very close look at it. It should go right in.
the one end with the 7 holes fits into the tester but if i put the balance of the battery in any of the slots on the balance adaptor that does not fit
i can plug the balance of the battery in the tester and tells me the % of battery left or if charged but i never used the balance adaptor
Mike G.
Not sure what is up there. May be a bad battery.
idk so on my charger that i was using and taking 5 hours to charge was that supposily overcharging the battery and it became puffy
Mike G.
I do think that batt is bad.
oh cause it still charges and i get good flights on it
Mike G.
I'm not sure but maybe a bad conn at the balance plug.
oh ok well i will do little more researching into the batteries and if i have to get a new charger i will be glad to order one another day
Mike G.
Cool. I have to say I thin there is a lead issue on that batt.
well i will see what i can do about it and maybe another time come back and order the charger cause i even notice people use the charger that connects to the car battery and only takes so many minutes to charge but when i charged my 2200 and 3200 lipo batteries on the wall charger i use it takes while to charge and do not know if its the charger or the batteries just hope it was the charger
Mike G.
Right. That tells me it is the battery.
i will check into the battery and see what i can do and maybe order new batteries and everything another day
thank you for the help i appreciate it
Mike G.
