2S Lipo Charging ???????????????????

Post by Beatnik »

I traded some stuff and ended up with a couple of those Losi Micro trucks. One is brushless and uses this LOSB0863 battery, 2s 7.4v 180mah and I haven't got a charger for lipo at all. Will this do and maybe be useful when I get other lipo batteries ???????? I still have my old power supply.

That will do what you need. Keep in mind that you will need to make a charging cable for the battery you have.

Look for a multi battery cable, an octopus style cable and buy that.

Thanks !

I had bought the proper wall wart losi charger off ebay, but hey sent the wrong thing and had it listed wrong. It's a 2s 250mah, so I'm waiting for a refund.

This adapter work ?

That one looks like it doesn't have the Losi micro plug you need. Something like this would work also (with whatever battery connector you usually use for other stuf, Deans, XT60, Tamiya etc,)

I saw that and it looks more square than this battery uses ? It's more flat looking like this one.

There is a wired connector in the pile of parts I got that looks like it was used with alligator clips maybe ?

The harness I posted says "a blank pair of wires that you can connect your own plug to if necessary." So I guess I can solder this connector on. I ordered the charger and harness while they were offering the charger to me at 27.91 . Will this charger cover me for lipo now ?
