Just checking to see if anyone else can either duplicate / confirm.

My 10S charger won't charge up A123 packs when I try to utilize the Node connectors only. When I hook up the discharge AND node connectors, the charger fires them right up. Both A123 packs (2300Mah and 1100 VPX packs) charge just fine with my CellPro (3 amp version). Also, the charger give a "Safety Code 96" error which is not in the book.
.
.
I contacted FMA and they want me to send in the charger and batteries for testing. . if it was November, I wouldn't have a problem but flying season has just started here!!

My 10S works fine on 4SA123 packs using node connector only. In fact I seldom use the discharge connector.

Status: offline 		This may not be relevant to your situation but I just purchased a Cellpro 4s to use on a 2300 mah A123 pack and out of the box the charger did not work. I kept on getting an error code 28. I tried the pack on another 4s and it charged up. I sent it back to FMA and a new one is on the way but it is almost a two week turn around.
