I have a B6AC charger that has a balance charing option- well, anytime i plug ANY lipo into it, it says voltage error. So, i just regular charge with an Astroflight blinky balancer.

How long do i need to leave the blinky on the battery for?

Simple question...probably a simple answer...

Have you tried connecting main charge leads and balance wires with charger off. Then turning it on and going about setup for charging? Sometimes this can make a diff. One ver of firmware my Hyperion 0610 had was sensitive like this.
