Default Re: Charge jack polarity

Obviously, the way that works is right. But that is a smartass answer!!!!

Check with a DVM, and you could make yourself a little reminder on the airframe as to which is which.

Hi Wawsha,

It should only fit one way into the switches. If that is the problem let me know. However I think you are talking about the Ion Cube? If that is the case it doesn't matter. The Center is Red, the outside pins are black so matter which way you plug your charge cord it will be right?

Hope that helps with what you are asking.

After reading though the manual for my charger i found that it has reverse polarity protection so i just tried it until it worked. However, i think the problem is not with the switch, but it is an issue with the end of my plug that come from the charger. Long story short, i got my batteries charged. Thanks!
