    Hello all
    I have got a lipo that's at 1% which is not good but I have put into storage charge and it seems fine just while it was charging the PL6 come up with low voltage on the screen.Do I see if it will fully charge.
    Thanks in advance.

    What were the actual cell voltages before attempting to charge?

      Before the putting the lipo into storage mode they was at 2 ....Volts per cell and just over 7 volts
      Just put on tester and they read 11.40 total,cell 1\ 3.799 2\ 3.799 3 \ 3.797 all at 24%

        That's pretty low but it looks like the charger has recovered them to storage voltage. Go fly it and see how it does.

        I dont have a PL6 but I think that the 'Low Voltage' indication means that the charger has detected that the battery was over discharged, so it goes into a very slow charge recovery mode.

          I drained a brand new optipower 2s rx pack the other day. I got keen and plugged it in while bench setting up my heli. I few mins went by and 6 hours later my rx and FBL unit powered down. checked the pack and it was down to 1.8v per cell.

          stuck it on my 406duo to charge to storage. After 15mA it errored out saying cell voltage too low. I tried it again and this time it carried on, and returned it to 3.85v per cell. I charged it to capacity and it seems to be performing.

          I ordered a new one anyways, but will use this pack for bench setting. If it holds out I will place it in service.
