What’s this noise from my EZ-Peak charger?
Noticed battery charge didn’t last as long. It’s barely been used and been put in storage mode after every period of use and has been well looked after, it’s not old at all.
Noticed alongside this, the charger was making this really weird grinding/straining/abrasive/fast noise when discharging the battery. Took my battery and charger to my local RC shop and they tested the battery and said both cells are flat, which I am shocked at. Car is set to lipo mode and it’s been otherwise well looked after as lipos should.
We assumed it was just unlucky so I bought a new battery. When plugging this new battery in though, this strange sound from the EZ-Peak charger is happening again! Battery lasted much longer this time, but with this noise when discharging i’m worried the charger is responsible for breaking the last battery and don’t want it to do the same to the new one.
Is this a normal sound for the EZ-Peak charger to be making? It’s kept in my room and is not dusty at all or got wet.
Thanks!!
