Hi Everyone,
I have two ETX680C batteries installed on my RV-8. I purchased them off the EarthX website in April 2018. They have been sitting on the self until recently. I am just finishing my build and got my FAA sign off on the August 24th. I fully charged both batteries with OptiMate 5 amp Lithium charger and all seemed normal. I then ran the batteries down doing avionics checks and EFIS configuration. I plugged in the batteries one at a time to recharge. One battery recharged and seems normal, the other will not take a charge. I have tried to reset the BMS, by disconnecting the battery per the video on the EarthX website, but that is not working. The charger is going into save mode, but then starts flashing Red. Any ideas to charge the battery or is it toast?. I didn't plan on running the batteries so low, but got caught up working on the settings.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
