[NSRCA-discussion] TP 1010C - Firmware update - now have frequentoutput failure error

[Walter Nasse]

I have had the same problem and it sure is a hassle.  When charging on
cooler days with a wind, I do not get any errors. It seems to me that the
1010C is overheating causing the output circuit failure.  I now run a charge
with the charger sitting up on edge with a 12 cm 12 volt fan blowing against
the back of the unit.  This seems to alleviate the problem but is not a 100%
fix.

        I updated the firmware on this charger to take advantaged of A123
capbility.

        Now I am getting a frequent output circuit failure error charging my
lipos, I have made no change other than this.

        Charge lead terminals have all been cleaned etc. I have two chargers
and two flight packs that are having the same result.



        I have reduced my rate from 5A to 4A and at the moment seems to have
alleviated the problem.

        I will try and go back to the previous firmware to check, wondering
if anyone else has experienced this problem.

        Thanks
        Brian
