I've previously purchased cheaper chargers from aliexpress for my EM3EV battery and converted the charge output wire to xt60 without any problem.
I needed an adapter to their strange ST3 socket, so used xt 60 to go between.
I repeated the process yesterday with a 58.8v charger with 8A output (the fastest charger that my battery will accept I think)
Anyway, as soon as I plugged it into the battery ( not mains) the charger popped and I knew that i'd done some internal damage to the charger.
I opened the charger only to find that the output wire is colored blue wire positive, brown wire negative. To me this was just too strange to even question before having made my connections.
Did I neglect something here or has this manufacturer ignored all of the standards and sold me a dodgy charger.
I don't have a lot of leeway in getting any money back, because I modified their item resulting in damage, then opened it to find the wire color irregularity.
Thanks a load for your ideas!
Also any suggested 58v 8a charger to replace with would be greatly appreciated.
