how to unplug LiPo battery from miniusb charger?

Post by Khariton »

I have plugged the LiPo battery into the usb charger and let it charge. Now I am unable to unplug the battery from the charger. I am unsure whether I just need to apply more force or there is maybe a latch or catch that keeps the plug in place and needs to be pressed / lifted. I would not want to break the connector on its very first usage ...Image

There is no latch on the plug. It should pull straight off. They are often a bit stiff when new and may require more force.

Thanks, pulled it hard and twisted a little and it came off. Wow, I had never found a connector that made me feel like I needed to exercise more! :)
