I am not sure if that charger has a stand alone balance function.

Also, you may want to send the battery back, if a new battery is that far off it will have issues, generally.
Thanks, but I bought it from ebay...seller said it was brand new minus having soldered on the dean plug...I bet he noticed the same thing and so he sold it on ebay, saying that he never once charged or ran it
