Battery message help!!! ***update***

[VapingBad]

Sorry for the late reply I have just got back from my hols, there seems to be some confusion here. The battery recovery charge in EScribe is not for unbalanced batteries, but for batteries that have drained too far to be charged normally, it can take several attempts as there is a short time limit for safety. The DNA 200 has a built in balance charger which should do the job, but it is very slow if they are much out of balance and the charge indicator turns off so you may not realise it is working. You can also jerry rig a lead to charge each cell separately from a normal 18650 charger or use a hobby charger.

If all the cells are at the same voltage is worth checking ther is no juice on the board as it can cause false readings, a wipe with IPA should do and check the balance plug and pins are clean.
