    No power

    Tried to strt my revo 3.3 today although there is no power. I have tried to charge it for the past day now and still no luck. If the batteries are stuffed should i still get some indication that there is limited power even through a light? At witts end as been at this for some time and need help.

    Moved from the T-Maxx forum.

    So what is it doing? What is it not doing? Is the engine turning over or not? How is the battery?

    Are you talking about the receiver battery? If the batteries are totally dead you won't get any light. You may have left the receiver on all night if that's the case the batteries well be totally dead.

    I agree with fallonguy. If you left the baterries on the charger for too long it basically fries them. nimh batteries are great because they have no memory and can be charged at anytime without harming the batteries but if you over charge them it kills them. I would suggest hitting up Ebay for some new battery packs (very reasonable for 3.3) and buy a smart charger. That way if you are charging and forget about it, the smart charger will reach peak charge and then drop to a trickle charge without over charging the battery packs. I hope this helps.
