Today I tried it on my mini battery. 1600mah 3S zippy... Its been hours since it started. The charger says it is charging at .16 amps.

Shouldn't it be 1.6 amps?????

I thought I went through the menus right...Is it seeing something wrong with my battery or something?
Thanks

With some zippys, cells get way out of balance, especially with a deep disch and depending on your balancer, it can take hours and hours to get them back in balance and charged. Ck cell voltages with a dvm using the balance tap and see how far apart they are before charging. My Neus rarely get more than 3-7mv apart (.003 - .007v) and if I don't pull a lot of mah out they usually won't show any diff.
