i bought an imax b6 charger, no i am having problems. it came with tamiya plugs installed on all the charge wires, and every time i install deans on it i cant get the solder to stay. i applied it before charged one battery, and a day later one of the wires had come loose. now i put a brand plug on it and it has happened again. are these where they plug into the charger universal and could i just buy a new charger cable?

 

[ittybitty]

did you buy it used? if so i hope you got a smokin deal. what type of solder are you using? i use 60/40 rosin core...works great

no, i bought it from where you said to. i just called them, and they said to send them an email and they would send me a new cable, lets hope it is that easy.

R u standing on the areas that u are soldering at. I have found that if I scratch it up a Lil it hold better if ur not try it out maybe it will work for u

last i checked its not a good idea to stand on a metal tab you are applying extreme heat to.:lmao: but no i did not sand the area, but also my esc's that i did at the same time are holding up great. matter of fact the one i had one my 4 tec dismounted during a roll over and everything held.

Never new that been doing it for years lol not standing a lot now just scuff it up with like 150 grit paper

AH..I forgot that it came with a tamiya plug on it. No scuffing, standing, sanding, etc needed...just some good solder. I get mine at Radio Shack. What type of solder are you using...you didn't say...

i have just been using novak silver solder, its worked for me for years. i am not especially knowledgeable about solder, but i do what i can. also on the web sight all the pictures show deans.

 

[ittybitty]

now see thats what i was thinking originally...and thats why i asked if you bought it used. the novak solder should work fine...what type of soldering iron?

i dont even remember i really need a new one of those. but my other solders from the same day, same time same iron are holding just fine.

 

[ittybitty]

Are you tinning the wire and plugs first? This needs to be done otherwise, yes, the shit pulls apart easy.

I use rat shack silver solder and works great. You using any flux?
