Hi
My v2 no longer holds any charge. With an external battery it works but paragliding i would like a better long term solution. i know very little about electronics could i replace the battery with this
http://cpc.farnell.com/ansmann/2447-3034/battery-pack-li-ion-1s3p-3-7v/dp/BT06041

it’s lithium ion 3.7V but much bigger 7.8Ah. I’d ask a friend to solder and i have an offer of a 3d print for a new bigger case . But would it work?

thanks
joe

I got a battery from Lawrence that was 3.7V 1Ah, it now lasts longer than the 12 hours i tested. It’s needs me to do some work with a new case but it’s pretty amazing.

Hi Folks,

I have exactly the same problem. My Vertica V2 has been on a charger for weeks and indicates 100% charge after a few minutes. However it only holds charge for an hour or so -probably less.

Can anyone give me a clue what kind of battery is used (I understand 3.7V 1000 mAh, but size and where to buy?) and what procedure is used to replace it?

Thanks, Bert
