Having 960 charging problems?
 
I'm getting false peaks on all my packs. Charging EnerG 4600 seven cell and 4200 six cell packs. The seven cell pack are set to 35mV but it will only take a half charge before it shuts off. The six cell is set at 30mV and does the same thing. I have increased the milli volts setting by 5 but it still only charging half way. If I want to get a complete charge then I have to start it over again and watch the temps. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Are these brand new packs? If so, it is very typical for new packs to false peak the first couple of charges. Also, what charge rate are you charging these packs at?

No these packs have at least 25 cycles on the them some even more. I have tried a charge rate of one and up to three. This charger worked fine before, I have had this one for a couple of months now. It just started to act up the last couple of charges. I tested to see if I had a dead cell in the first pack it happen to but it has done it to all of them and I have a total of four packs. Thanks.

These are run packs for your car/truck? If so, I would try charging them at 4.5 amps or higher and see what happens. You should be fine charging them at the higher rate.

I will try the higher amps and up the mV. I do have a temp gun so I can check cell temp to make sure I don't cook the cells. Will let you know what happens. Thanks Tim for the help.

I would actually leave the mv settings alone and try the higher amp rate first.

Hey Tim? Charged my EnerG 4600 seven cell side by side pack with setting 4amps and 40 mV. The charger false peaked, it finished with 9.78V it only charged for 21.4min and only put 1430m back into the battery. Something is not right!

I replied to the other post. However, was the battery warm when the charger shut off?
