arrived today!

same problems as everyone else though I have managed to get the pins pushed back through the connector and then just plugged them into the female connector block, with a little bit of plastic in between to stop them touching as I need the pack charged for tomorrow, red-green-red-green off red - so appears to be charging OK.

will do a proper job with the connector block once I have a full charge.

what are you stuck on mate?

I managed to push the two connectors out of the battery harness, and for now all I've done is plug them into the opposing connectors on the female half (the charger side) with a bit on non-conductive material in between to stop them shorting out, I'm going to get a new connector from maplin and rewire it.

If in doubt, slap the little adapter into a envelope and send it back to me first class... I will repair it, test it here; then return to you, with your postal costs to myself included :)

If you have thrown away the return address then just pm me and I can sort you it out...

well I used the bonepack in my reloader yesterday, flawless all day, switcvhed on about 9am, wasn't turned off until about 15:30, put 3,000 rounds through the marker, so aside from the hassle getting the darn things to charge it's all good.

There's been a fair bit of hassle in this down the line but now they're here and I've used it I'm quite happy, so fair play to Chris for dealing with all the aggro.:)

Update:

Got some 3.15amp quickblow fuses, it's a little temperamental and has blown one of these but this was as part of my testing process so generally speaking all seems OK, using one of the race pack connectors and a 9v snap connector I've managed to build a working adaptor before I start work modifying the original.:)
