after further verifications, found that it'll fluctuate between the set current and 0A for the 1st few mins, then it'll go to the set current and charge till about almost full and then reduce the current but not to 0A...
i've only tested with nimh and nicd. i think during the 1st few mins the charger is in some form of 'detection mode' so it'll modulate the current for detection of correct voltage? ...

As mentioned earlier, the charger provide high current at the beginning and at the final stage, reduce the current to check if the battery is really fully and repeat the process with even lower current, recheck, reduce current and so on until it is fully charged, but will not reduce to zero. It will not drop to zero and then back up again as mention in your previous post.
Hi,
I just received my Mystery B6 charger, and I have the same comportment as TypeR (current is dropping to 0.0A every ~2min and then going back to what I set).
I'm affraid of a malfunction, I tried with some NiMH Batteries and the charger didn't stop feeding them current The batteries (1 cell) get hot and received more than their max capacity, but the charger just continue to charge them
Any advices ??
Thanks
