Lipo problem!!!

[Nas]

One of my cells in my Turnigy 4500mah 4s battery had gone bust I THINK.

Its a brand new battery and was only used for 3 minutes to test it out.
All the cells have reached 4.10v but one of them will NOT go higher than 3.84v

Whats wrong?

Thanks

Dont know if this is of any help mate, but I had a similar experience.

Sometimes some of my cells wouldnt go above a certain voltage when charging (anywhere from 3.8v to 4.1v)
It turned out to be a dodgy connection on my balance board going from the battery to my charger.

Took it apart, repaired the broken connection with some wire, and it works 100% again.

Hmm that's weird. All my other battery's charged fine?.My friend has the same charger so might try his.

Thanks for the help though

I might just try running it,then re charging it because some new battery's need some cycles through them before being fully charged.

To be honest it sounds like you have a duff cell, or maybe a bad connection inside the pack. Have you contacted Hobbyking about it?

Bought it from a U.K seller with Warranty so all should be good.My charger detects bad connections and warns me,the connections seem fine to be honest.
