    You might have a dry or broken solder joint on the balance plug lead where its soldered to each cell...

    I always charge my packs at 1C - i.e. if the pack is a 2200mAh I charge at 2.2A (2200mA). Newer packs offer multiple C charging rates but I suspect this is at the cost of longevity of the pack itself (you rarely get something for nothing in this life!)

      You've got 50Watts per channel on the Lipro Quad 6 so for a 6s pack the max current available from the charger is going to be 2Amps(@4.2Volts/cell) to 2.2Amps(@3.7Volts/cell). Call it 2Amps max.
