Inspire 1 battery mod: never ending crusade ...

Good question! To do the hard reset, what are all the preparative procedures besides removing the balance connector and leaving disconnected for an hour required before doing a hard reset connecting GND to RESET?

just yellow

I assume the board still has to be connected to the battery when you do the reset?

yes 2 ways

1. just touch RST and GND for a few seconds
2. while battery is off, (this one is tricky unless you have 3 hands,) touch RST and GND while pushing and holding the power button...5 seconds

try that and update us
if those don't work, she needs to be programmed

also if its blinking lights and wont turn off.....pull the balance lead and let it sit for 24 hour's, it discharges the chips

BUT always check each lipo, if there is any variant os voltage, nothing works....balance each cell to same, from 3.0 to 4.2 they all have to be + or - .50 mv

The arrived today along with a bag of useful looking plastic shims and things which will be very handy to for taking old batterys apart.
Batterys took about three weeks to arrive.
First Job, take these batterys and make sure they are all balanced. I have a UP7 charger, i'll have to make some matching balance leads up for it.
