Could also be balance taps shorting, I have one HK pack that does that, fortunately I caught the problem on my charger, not in my plane.

So, I actually don't know the answer to this although logic dictates that if there's a short, the short will show itself at all points. But, if the short is in the balance leads and the leads aren't connected to anything in the airplane, can that still affect the discharge lead? Also, let it be known that I charge my batteries in the "vertical" position. Nothing showed on the charger as being bad.
