I was charging my batteries for the first time on my Duratrax Ice and I ran into a problem while charging. I have 3300mah unmatched Trinity packs and I started charging the pack on automatic mode to make it easier for me. After about 15 minutes of everything going fine the charger stopped charging and END DELTA PEAK started flashing on the charger. I didn't know what to do so I disconnected the battery. Nothing was hot at all and the charge only reached about 650mah before it stopped. Anyone know what I do now???

may be that the pack already had a charge in it, and could only take 650mah. End delta peak means the charger has sensed that the battery has peaked. Try discharging the battery on the ice, see how much it discharges. Then charge it again.

Yeah has happened to me on some of the older packs, discharge then recharge and go from there.

Ok guys, I discharged my battery and after about 2 minutes it came up with END-CUT VOLTAGE which I believe means the discharge has ended. It seemed very quick but oh well. Now what's the best way for me to re-charge the battery? I am still new to all this but I don't want to ruin my batteries and I am really keen to use them. Any help is greatly appreciated ;)
