I have a new, no-brand 6-cell 1700 SC pack that I first charged at 100ma, then subsequently charged on "auto" mode with my Simprop Intelli-control charger (same as FMA Nova). (The pack came with a Chinese R/C tank I bought while perusing the Raindentech site for CMP ARFs.) It has been charged about four times.
It seemed like the pack was running down quickly between charges. I checked the tank with my multimeter... nothing at all flowing with the switch set to "OFF." So I charged the pack last night, left it sitting out all day, then put it back on the charger tonight. It took 865mah worth of charging. 1/2 discharged in one day? Hardly seems possible.... :-(
I guess I'll chuck it and buy a Sanyo pack! Should I disassemble it and save the good cells?
