charger problems - Meatwad - 03-18-2007
ok so i bought a Dynamite prophet plus like 2 months ago. I cant get it to charge anything. I just bought a new reciever pack and ran it in my buggy to make sure it was dead. so i tried charging it at 1 amp and it only took 5 minutes to charge. the battery is a 1500mah. Is this about how long it should take?

At 1 amp, shouldn't it take 1.5 hours to do a 1500mah pack from dead-dead?

It should take about 30-45 min.

check how many cells your set on. sometimes mine gets bumped from 6 to like 4 and only takes like 10 mins too charge a 3600 pack then I realize I bumped it

Maybe a false Peak...Did you hit the button again to see if it will charge longer?
charger problems - Meatwad - 03-18-2007

a false peak is basically when your charger says the batts done but its really not.
