Chargers Balance Boards

[Geena]

Ever wonder what happens when you forget to unplug the series connection on a 12s stick pack, and plug balance leads into the board?

This is what happens. Stupid, amateur mistake, but just goes to show how easy it is to do it. Be careful boys and girls.

They were right, there was a demon inside and you just released him.....

Hahaha. Yeah that magic smoke was everywhere. It`s already been replaced, and I have a spare...in case I do that again. Now, when I unplug the ESC, I unplug the series connection first. Still can`t believe I did it, but things happen..lol.

I thought that was supposed to stop things like that?

Those boards are so cool I live em..

The board actually still worked. The burns were from when the protective tape got hot and melted..LOL. I replaced the board anyway, because I don`t trust it 100% now.
