Mike_J_Smith Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Totally unrelated to my question about buying new LiPos (😅), I’ve managed to cut through the balance cable wires on this LiPo, can I just solder them up? Does it matter what order they are connected up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 If you get the right bits, yes it can be saved.  They'll need to be in the correct order. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike_J_Smith Posted August 7, 2022 Author Share Posted August 7, 2022 Ok thanks everyone. Is the order of wires is obvious right to left? Or might they be an odd order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tug Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 If there's no markings, you might wanna peel the end of the pack open to allow you to trace the balance leads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike_J_Smith Posted August 7, 2022 Author Share Posted August 7, 2022 Ok thanks, I’ll strip it back and see. That may give me some more wire to work with too as they have been cut a bit short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All soldered back up now and the cells are reading ok. Just need a little duct tape to neaten it up and it should be usable again.  Thanks all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
