I have done already but went further by adding a surface mount LED volt meter to the std charger so I can check the battery voltage out in the field or prior to charging. Also your method disables the 5V USB out and I have modded that to allow PH or ST16 charge.
Hi Haydn, Sorry, but I don't want to blow the charger or a battery! I understand the pos/neg main wires go to far left and far right pins and the red balance lead goes to the slightly higher second pin in from the right, but not sure on the 4 black balance leads? You solder them on so quickly, it doesn't seem that you solder them on in any sequence?
Hi, just one question, it is obvious where the red balance lead goes, but does it matter which black balance lead goes to which contact in the charger? Thanks, Tony
Hi Hadyn, finished the mod this morning, great thanks. One last question, for 5400 lipos I would usually charge at 5 Amp, is there any reason why I shouldn't set my Imax charger to 5 Amps when now connected through the Yuneec OE charger?
Not a good Idea, I did this exact mod, I charged using my Venom Quad Touch, burnt the charger up, then the battery, bout burnt my house down. easier and safer to just by the pigtail, AND CHEAPER, now I have to buy a Battery, Charger and the pigtail, DONT DO IT
it makes you want to try!
I have everything to do :)
thank you from France for this idea ;)

How did you know which was the balance negative and which were cells 1,2,3 leads as they are all braided together? :-)

Ok, thanks.
Good idea bro. İt's Great
What did you purchased and were
braiding lessons! Cool!
I What did the modification do? charge faster? faster and more power?
+Haydn Gerken wow! Does it give you more flying time?
Will this work with the typhoon Q500 4k
Haydn Gerken ok thanks
Great! +100500 You!
Put some heat shrink on it,,
As one in the electronics trade, it was painful to watch..
Not detracting from your work that I find no fault with.
Happy flying.
