I have a pair of hard case gensacearespammers 5000 50c 2s batteries that aren't that old. Ran them in my "other" truck for sh!ts and giggles yesterday at the competition. Got home and went to charge, and an error popped up for one battery. One cell has disappeared! Cleaned the balance plug and tried on three different chargers. Nothing. Wires were never pulled and the batteries came out as clean as they went in. Where do I start to get this resolved? The batteries are not that old and don't get used that much. They charged fine on Saturday night before the competition.

Wait 24 hours and file a missing cell report.

Hopefully whoever finds it will return it. It meant a lot to me and I'm not sure how I'm going to live without it. :(
 
I think one cell moght have unsolder itself or ripped the alluminum tabs that happened to me once when i nose landed
That was the first thing I checked for, but since it's a hard case, I just pulled on the wires (go ahead Ed) to make sure nothing had come undone.
 
my 2 cents

gensacearespammers are usually dependable packs. The oldest 2s packs I have are gensacearespammers and even after loaning them to bossman's son for his granite....and knowing he abused them, they're still good to go.

Mine also was a hardcase and i menaged to open it quite easily no i just wrap it wil electrical tape to keep the case secure and added foam inside
 
Yeah and when I do it I think it's cool cause I hear helicopters. Best after a few beers. ?
I was so messed up on fumes that I fell asleep on the sofa in the customer lounge. Yeah I’m the idiot who didn’t open the large garage doors with the cars running in the shop ?‍♂️
 
All right gents, so jokers be joking huh. We'll see who gets the last laugh after I burn down my house and my wife gets the note with all your names and how to find you on the forum. Last chance, before I open that case up. ???
