MAH lipo pack

[Mercuriell]

Anyone any experience of MAH products ? they're supposed to be an offshoot of the RUssian Aerospace industry and market a range of CF products - I bought an MAH Rx lipo cell 4400mAh and 7.8V which I thought sounded a bit too good to be true and after AUS$96 and a dud battery pack arrived (flat as a tack = 0V) I wondered if my original thoughts were correct. The CF boom for my Sceadu looks nice though !

Is it a Li-Po or a Li-Ion? I did not think Dmitry was selling anything but Li-Ion's???

Good point - re-check of the label confirms it is LiIon- it has 4 cells so I guess it's a 2S2P. The importer in Oz advises me it may be a faulty battery protection circuit but I am concerned due to the critical role of a Rx battery. No reason for it to register zero on a multimeter though or not to initiate charge on a LiPo charger ?

Ype, that is Li-Ion. I know people using them successfully for at least 2 years. Looks like you got a defective pack. I would have them exchange it for a new one if they have it, if not, I can contact Dmitry for you and see if he can help.
