hey i just did a tri-cell with my zip using electrical tape cuz i was pist off at soldering. all the batteries were connected in series. next i soldered a wire from the positive side of one battery to the positive charge plate. next i went to the last battery in series and soldered a wire from the negative charge plate to the negative side of the battery. i slapped it in carefully makeing sure all the wires were properly fit. then i slapped it on my 6 v charger and IT DOESNT WORK. wont even turn or anything. can anyone help? everything is connected im positive. any help?

also on the new 2 FAST 2 FURIOUSE convertables shells how are you supposed to fit a tri cell or dual cell in the car if you flip the pcb over? the seats in the convertables sink down below the top of the car so theres less room. does it still fit? i know some of u guys have it. also how duz the skyline look? better than the BITCHAR-G R34 SKYLINE GTR? or as good as the r32 skylines?

When you soldered to the battery you probably burnt the battery.

I believe he just said that he didn't solder, he used black tape.

I would take it apart and solder everything. You probably have a cruddy connection somewhere. Make sure to check the wires to the PCB and ensure that they are not loose. Use a bit of sandpaper on the cells before you solder them, or your mom's nail buffer pad thing. It will be easier to solder with a rough surface.
