nice, yeah I’ve only got 3 batteries for my quad at the moment I’m waiting for some more to ship off back order but was gonna just run my charger and a balance board off that outlet and recharge those 3 packs while I’m out there. My buddy’s got a new inspire 2 he’s gonna test tomorrow morning too so i can let mine charge while we goof around with his and while i mess around with the pids and get the rates and stuff dialed. I’ve got a couple of army surplus ammo boxes off eBay that i want to make a little charge box out of too.Should be fun!

 

Little thing I've seen at other places. Drill a hole in the side or lid of your ammo can and then put some duct tape over it to keep them dry. Should one of those lipos un-ass it would be a bomb without having a vent. But even with a vent it will become a blow torch. I keep mine in an ammo box as well.


My 1st gen doesn't have a plug in the back. I have a topper so I ran an amp sized power wire to the back with a SeaBlue block. I use the 12v source to run my charger and it's done well. I've ran 2 off of it doing a bunch 1500-2200mAh batts for the kids to run with. Just keep tabs on the truck battery ever now and then.

 

Cut some of the gasket out of the lid to prevent the bomb. Still a torch but directed att he ground via the lip in the lid ...

 

yep that was the first thing i did was rip that rubber gasket outta there. Definitely gives a slight puckering feeling each time i charge though but I’ll just make sure to keep an eye on it while charging

 

In case anyone needs a truck bag. Just order some Panera

 

It's almost done. First build ever. Matches pretty close.

 

Well done

 

That’s rad! Nice job.

 

What he said. Totally rad. I couldn't see the difference right away.
