I have a BPH 35W Charger, it will charge my 2200 mAh, 11.1V 3S , 20C LIPOs just fine. In my new plane I'm using ElectriFly 600mAh 25C, 7.4V 2S, 5Wh LIPO with a charging rate at 0.6A. The charger will not recognize the ElectriFly is even there. The EF Battery reads 6.8V with my meter. I checked the leads and they seem to be ok. It will not recognize the second EF battery either. I set the charge rate at the recomended 0.6 mAh charge rate and 2S output. Been flying nitro/gas forty plus years, new to electric. I hope I'm only having cockpit trouble and someone can help. Thanks, RG

I don't know that particular charger but the fact that it will not recognise either of your 2s LiPo suggest 3 possibilities
1. You are not setting up the charger correctly for 2s charging.
2. Both batteries have defective balance leads.
3. The 2s side of the charger is not working.
sorry I cannot be more specific
