2ND UPDATE Fixed and it`s now taking a balance charge on the lipo setting, Thanks for the help guys !!!
Glad it worked.

I would use a "1C" or lower charge rate when trying to "fix" an issue like this. Since you have a 2000mah pack, I would use 2A (AKA 1C for a 2000mah pack) or less......all you want to do is get the volts back up enough to charge on LiPO balance.

Never! Run it until you notice a drop in performance or when the lvc activates.

Any further and you will risk damaging the battery.
