well your in luck I have that charger and batt. combo the problem with this thing is it does not tell you what you are putting back in. and my best guess is you have done damage to the packs by over discharging the paks. also the balancer doesn't work really well I bought a Triron Jr. and a Astro blinky 106 and the paks I was charging with the charger in question did a poor job balancing it took the balencer I bought almost 25 mins. the recovr the pak but it did recover. Here is a pic of the charger and batt thet is like yours. The triton Jr. can be had for $79. and the Astro Blinky can be had for $25. I know there are alot of choises but the set uo works for me. you can also get a CellPro4 for around $60-80 and I have here good things about that charger and it charges and balances the packs. A friend of mine has one and we can't get his DN Power batts. to balance and charge on the CellPro but he just got it and we have not worked with it moch. I think you would like the Triton Jr. as it is small in size and big in preformance. but the combo you have is not what you want. the batt. is good for hovering and I am getting about 7 1/2 mins. out of mine putting back around 1700 Mah this is in hover only. I hope this has helped you. :D
