Good luck, let us know if it works, if it does, I guess I'll be in the market for a balance charger.Thank you! I'm goin g to try an d save two batts, I didn't charge them for a year as I was ill, they only had 5 or 6 flights on them.....![]()
How did you connect it ?Quick update, I got the battery that showed signs of life to take a charge. I hooked it up to a 12v power supply for a few seconds, and that was enough to jump start it. Of course I'll have to plug the battery into the drone to see the status once it's charged and take some easy, low altitude flights to make sure it's not toast.
So now that leaves replacements, and if they can even be had.
This is my setup. I used to charge my batteries this way when I was in a hurry. The connector is for DJI batteries but you really don't need the connector just stripped wires to insert into the correct terminals. Any RC charger will work as most have the different options to charge different batteries.

So basically you just need like a balance connector plugged in, doesn't have to be an actual lipo tester? Or what kind of lipo tester, sorry for all the questions, but I'm finally going to try and get a charger to revive my 2 batteries,and want to make sure I get everything I need and right the 1st time.This is my setup. I used to charge my batteries this way when I was in a hurry. The connector is for DJI batteries but you really don't need the connector just stripped wires to insert into the correct terminals.

That works! I just brought a five or six year old, unused, Autel X-Star Go battery back to life by jumping to 9.4v then fully charger with the default charger. Than you Sir (now you are Knighted).Just use a 12 volt battery. All your trying to do is bump up the voltage to the point the stock charger can read it again. Use short bursts like 20-30 seconds at a time. Just make sure you have the connection cables in the right place. Read the part over "Can you Jump Start A lithium battery at home?"

First off, just want to say thank you Sir Agustine for the info. I've obtained a trickle charger someone mentioned on another thread but am a little wary of the connection between the pos/neg contacts on the battery and the charger. What exactly should I be using to do this? Would you happen to know the name of that DJI connector cable? Do you think there's others floating around for sale?This is my setup.
