This bites.... - 05.19.2011, 12:15 AM

So i ordered some turnigy packs a while back and they have been sitting waiting untill i got my MMM back from Castle. Well it showed up today so i went ahead and soldered on my connectors on both the MMM and my new 5s turnigy packs. I plug a battery in and go ahead and try to calibrate my new esc. It beeped and flashed whatnot and i tried to calibrate and then it just shut off. I unplugged the batt and tried again, nothing. So i unplugged the batt and hooked to a voltmeter....no voltage. GAY! It seems the negative wire has a bad solder joint on the board it is soldered to, if i press on it it reads voltage, if i let go it reads nothing. I checked the voltave at the main leads and each cell when i got them and they were all perfect. Im pretty sure the waranty on these is 30 days, and im pretty sure its been over a month since i got them. Do you think they would replace it anyway since they are still new and never used?
