Hey there dNano folks. Made a slick dNano mod that is sure to void that warranty we don't have anyways:)

Look's cool, why is it off centered? Look better if the plugs were more in the middle, but oh well! Look's really good and functional! So does this now plug into the wall or another charger or what? How do you regulate charging the Dnano's cell?

About the warrenty, how can you void what isn't there? LOL!

If you look carefully at your charger, there is already a punchout looking thing where the black (-) jack is located so I drilled that out to actually make it a cleaner look. Not sure what they had planned when they designed the case but inside there are also molded features for wire strain reliefs that I had to remove to make everything to fit. Looks like Kyosho had/s other plans for this charger platform!!!

So does this now plug into the wall or another charger or what?

I use a Duratrax ICE charger and I just plug in with banana jumpers (go to link in first post to my site to see all the pics). I can charge in .1A increments, cycle, I've got visual graph while charging, etc. Best part is I preserved the original functionality so I can go portable with batteries if I want.

HAHA, indeed!
