battery pack
« on: September 07, 2014, 12:22:35 pm »

this may sound like a stupid question, but here goes. I have a Marathon 6 volt battery pack but i can not remember how to use it as it is so long ago that I purchased it. I have only recently began another modelling project so i never got to use the battery pack before and now I have forgotten how it is used. Is it something to do with the receiver. I know it has to be charged up but what do I plug it into or what is it attached to?

Can you post a picture of it, please? It could be one of two or three different types (SLA, NiCAD and NiMH) and the answer depends on which one.

That narrows it down a little bit.
Can you tell us what type of connector it has fitted to the leads? You can see the different types here http://www.componentshop.co.uk/leads-and-connectors/connectors
Also what is the quoted capacity (usually given in milliamp.hours, or maH for short)?
Finally how big is the pack (L x W x H)?
