If you're talking about the UDC-20, then that sounds pretty much normal to me. I have one myself, & yes, its balance charge mode does take some time to complete(mine's taken as long as an hour before, when putting a total of 2300mah in the pack, & that's charging at 5 amps in Balance Mode). And yes, the fan should work, but only if the charger starts to get too warm(at least that's how mine's worked)....
