I'm presuming these are fine but has anyone got any problems with them?

Have been using the Orion Avionics charger and it drops to 0.2a of there abouts before charge stops. Voltage would appear to be pre set as there's no way to change it. Have my Pro-Trak set to 8.4v and stop at 0.5a and it works fine. Software is 11.13v. Not sure why but it allows voltage cutt off to be 9.8v for 2 cell and half that for 1 cell. Only thing I can think of is it left over from when they were setting up the sofware as we're advised
not to over volt lipo's on charge
