I've been copying and pasting snippets of forum information into a text file for future reference.

Have not received my tank yet, but this morning I purchased a spare 7.2v battery and smart charger from a local model shop which is closing down.

Opened the boxes and remembered pasting this into the reference file.

Both the battery and charger are opposite to your tip. i.e. they are Red (positive) to square and Black (negative) to round. When I say round it is more of a rounded arch shape.

Have I been sold some duff items?
