Hello slap bash, or anyone using Gardiners back pack v2 I think I've got.

Fed up with back pack charger green light on all the time.

It's not charging backpack or very little.

Anyone took this backpack apart and successfully reassembled?

Got all screws of but guessing inside where pump filter is, is stopping me taking apart.

Took off metal filter inside where water goes.

There's a plastic nut.
Guess this comes off but How?

Just want to get to battery to charge with ctech charger, anyone?

Thanks lee.

I always charge my backpack with the ctek charger , does a much better job .

I just cut off the plug that goes into the back pack and connect the wires from it to the ctek charger .

Hi Robert.

That's interesting.

So plug, that fits into backpack.
When you strip it are there a red and black wires,

How do you know where ctek red and black clamps go.

Thanks lee

The c tech will give you a fault light if it`s connected up wrong.
