TP-610C battery question

[Deohgee]

I connected the new receiver Lipo battery that came with my T-Rex 600 to the charger, did all the configurations for a 2cell 1900mAh and the charge only took 35 min.
Is that a normal time to charge this battery?
Also, how can you check if the battery has a full charge using this charger?

Thanks for any help

Was this a new unused LiPo? If so, that's a normal charging time, since LiPo's are stored at about 50% charge.

To check a pack using the TP-610C

1- Set LiPo mode
2- Connect the pack to the balancer
3- Go to the "checking balancer data" menu
4- Press the INC / DEC to view the individual cell voltages
5- A fully charged pack at rest, will indicate 4.15 to 4.2 V per cell

Marc,
Great!!...sounds like I did it right based on the "Quick Start PDF" that I downloaded from you a few days ago and yes the bat was new and unused.
One question, you mentioned to connect the pack balancer connector to check bat.
Should I not connect the power connector?

Thanks again Marc for your help

You can, but don't have to. The balancer will tell you the individual voltage of each cell, without having to start a charge cycle.
