Will charge a gensace red line lipo. It says wrong cell count.not enough wires coming from balance lead Basically I paid for long charge cables

Stewart WilliamsVerified owneron Ruddog 4S Charge Lead w/4-5mm Stepped Bullets (40cm) (5 Pin-XH)

I had a bad experience with this cable not fitting snuggly in a 5mm connector battery. When using the cable for a long lead into a Batt Safe box, the negative post popped out of the battery probably when I was closing the lid and shorted out the charger against the metal Batt Safe. Maybe user error on my part, probably would work fine with a 4mm battery.

Good quality. I feel like they could have used a bit more heat shrink to bunch the wires better but gets the job done.

What reviewers say

Three verified owners reviewed this 40cm 4S charge lead with stepped 4-5mm bullets and a 5-pin XH balance connector. Reviewers disagree on quality: one rated it 4/5 as good quality that works, though the wire bunching could use more heat shrink. The two lower ratings report problems. One owner said the balance lead lacked enough wires for their Gensace lipo, which reported a wrong cell count. Another said the bullet did not fit snugly in a 5mm connector, and the negative post popped out during use, shorting the charger against a metal case. That reviewer suspected user error and thought a 4mm battery would likely work fine. Fit and balance-lead compatibility are the recurring concerns.

  • + Good overall quality
  • + Works for charging, per one owner
  • + Gets the job done
  • − Balance lead may lack enough wires for some lipos
  • − Stepped bullet did not fit snugly in a 5mm connector
  • − Wire bunching could use more heat shrink
