Add xt60 connector to tenergy tb6b2/18/2024 ![]() Though, I've only had it for a little over a week now. ![]() It's only the discharging that needs higher than 1C current. Charging, though, at 1C or less, as you should charge a LiPo, however, works fine. My theory is that it needs to see a certain minimum voltage drop internally during its balancing process and by Ohm's Law, that would mean you need to increase the current to give it better resolution. So, instead of discharging at 0.5A, use something like 2A. If you are trying to be gentle with it and discharge a 500mah pack at 1C you'll end up with a 4.00v per cell result. The other glitch I found is that when storage charging and doing primarily discharging of the battery, it won't quite get the per cell voltage down to the 3.85v target unless you use a decent discharge current. After some research online, I found that there was an updated firmware to fix this issue and upgrading the v1.00 firmware it came with to the latest v1.02 solved the issue. At first, I thought it was the cable, but other cables did the same thing. The strange thing is the difference remained even after unplugging the battery until I unplugged the cable. When that error occurred, it was showing a 0.51v difference in its reading between the main (overall) battery voltage input and the balance connector inputs. It kept giving a cell voltage mismatch error and refused to start. The first was when Storage-Charging a 2S LiPo. I have, however, encountered a few glitches. I have mainly used it on 2S and 3S LiPo batteries thus far and it's performed admirably. And having the on-board servo tester available is nice. Having the full graphical screen instead of a character-only display makes all the difference. It's so much easier to use and is much less confusing than the Tenergy TB6B I was using.
