mayhemmers,
can anyone shed some light on the 3 rd lead on a fleet control RX battery pack,
the cells on mine are now a few years old !!!! and in need of renewal, never had a problem in the 14 or so years i have had them... so never really thought about it...... but this weekend i took the case apart for the RX pack and they have a lead coming out for charging, all simple, one positive, one negative.....
then there is the second lead that goes to the switch harness then onto the receiver, its fitted with the blue dupont ' fleet style' plug with 3 leads.... the positive goes to the positive terminal of the pack, the black negative lead goes to the negative terminal,- simple and straightforward.... but then there is a white lead is also soldered onto the positive terminal......?
i initially thought there may be some kind of thermal device in the pack for charging monitoring, but there does not appear to be one..... any ideas what the white lead is for ?
i want to replace the 4 AA cells which are currently only 600mah capacity with new bigger capaicity AA cells, just wondered if there is any need for the white lead, or does it serve a purpose in the receiver itself ?
cheers.....
