Equinox battery question

[metaladdict]

Mine is 6 years old, seems not fully charging. Is it replacement time?
Seemed to go to one bar kinda quick after charging to two bars.
Thanks .

I would say 6 years seems about right for Lipos to start dropping. You probably got a bit before it becomes almost unusable, but it is headed that way I would guess. I just replaced the batter in my Deus at 6 years old. Still worked, but dropped after little more than an hour use.

I swapped a Legend for an XP Deus last fall. Deus serial # indicates a 2015 model. Must have had light use because it's an Energizer Bunny, just runs and runs.

Yeah sounds like it's about time. Very easy and inexpensive project.

For a 3 dollar battery cut the blue wrapper off detach the bms put on new battery that's what I would do $43 dollars come on .sube

Yes, replace it.
