I just got my 2kong 3s packs with the charger deal through ready heli. My question is with the charger. Its the G2 balance charger balancer. Well I plugged in my balancing connector, adjusted the amperage and pressed start. The display shows what the amperage is set at, but doesnt show the volts almost like it's not even charging anything. Do I have to plug in the balance connector as well as the main power lead to the charger? The instructions really doesnt tell you much, basically useless. Not only that if I do have to plug in the main power leads to the charger I would have to make up something for that also. Also too it has some reverse polarity connector adaptors in with it. What would I want to use these for? Could it be that my convertor is not putting out enough amps. Its only a 3 amp convertor, it works well with my other charger. Thanks.

If you're concerned about your power supply not keeping up, test the charger by connecting it to your car battery. Make sure that the polarity is correct on the balancer plug to charger port, set your charge rate, and press the start button. I've never tried it, but you may not get any voltage reading if your polarity is reversed on the balancer connector. That is what the extra adapters are for; to reverse the polarity of your connection.

Thats what it was I had to look at the adaptors in accordance with the battery balancer leads going to the charger ports. All good now. Thanks.
