Default question about charging my 3s lippo

Hello all, quisk question: I have a iCaharger 206b and when I charge my 2s lippo I use the Ballance charge setting but I can't seem to make the "Ballance charge" setting go 3s so I use the "Lippo charge setting and set it for 3s. Hopefully I'm not killing anything. I Each cell is at 3.86 while charging . Any and all help is much appreciated.

thanks!

I set mine for auto and it detects how many cells all by itself. I think it's default to that actually. plug in your balnace plug and when you blug in the main power it should change to 3s.

so use it in the "balance" setting or just the regular "Lipo" setting and set to 3s? I check the voltage of each cell and they are all the same. they increase as the charge progresses.

thanks for the reply charging these batteries is very confusing to me.

thanks again

Sounds like you have it. You want balance mode. They have a manual on the disc that comes with the charger. Not as user friendly as some, but once you get it figured out.....you'll never want to use another charger.
