FROMECO Ion Cube....Help.

[cyoung450]

I just got the new Fromeco Ion Cube and a nice 12V 8AMP power supply, I have the version with a brain. Anyway When I plug it in it never starts to charge. Does the battery have to be at a certain voltage to start charging, My plane has been sitting for over a month and I just want to top off my batteries the charger says 7.9 volts but never charges just sits there and blinks....what's up? Am I doing something wrong? I go thru the screen where it asks 2s or 3s and say OK then it says starting...and that's it, never starts charging reading 7.9V. HELP I want to use this nice new charger I have.....

Thanks,
Conrad

Conrad,

Do you have a li-on that needs charging just to check it? What I do is turn on the Power supply, the cube will fire up the fan for second, then your ready to plug in the first battery. Plug in the battery, give it 30 seconds to read the battery and should prompt you for charging amount, yellow for yes, blue to change. Once set, hit yellow again, it will say 2-cell, hit yellow agian and it wil start charging. If it stops, your battery is either charged or bad.
