Charging Problem
New to lipo's and need some help. I got a Hyperion charger that charges several battery types. Went through the menu and set it up to charge a NiCad yesterday and all went well. Today I go through the set up menu for a LiPo and when I press the start button it says "balancer connected", then it says "checking battery", then some battery data flashes on the screen, I think it's the status of the battery, then it goes back to where I entered the charge info. With the NiCad a timer came on the screen and showed the time and amount of charge that was going to the battery. Not so with the LiPo. Any ideas what's going on?
Thanks!

I found the problem. The 12V DC adapter I'm using only puts out 1 amp. Kinda hard to charge at 2.3 amp with that. I'll get a more robust adapter.
Thanks!
