If escribe shows 4.17v when your device is showing 100% wouldn't that mean setting it to 9.99 also makes the battery charge % inaccurate?
I just charged mine from 89-100% (set at 10.22mwh) and escribe showed two cells at 4.21 volts... When it stopped charging at 98% earlier all three were at 4.20v -
I've been having the same problem with my VS200 for the last few weeks. Only charges to 96-98% before the charging indicators turn off and I've watched the USB current sit at 0.00A for up to 30 minutes before unplugging it. However, if I fire the device it starts charging again and continues to 100% at .3-.6A like normal.
I'm curious why the factory setting is 10.22mWh for a 900mAh lipo. Shouldn't it be 9.99mWh? That would explain why its only balancing up to around 97% but not why it continues to charge after firing.
Battery level not going to 100 after a charge, escribe shows 4.2 volts... more info... weird?

That's what I meant, if the device thinks its at 100% when the cells are reading 4.17v then maybe 10.22mwh is more accurate for whatever reason. Although I don't think it should charge at 2A all the way to 4.2v, I've never monitored it in escribe but the balancing usually kicks in around 95% for me when it charges all the way.
I don't like it either, this is the first time I've checked at 100% straight off the charger. Now I'm wondering if there's something wrong with my 2a Samsung S5 charger or the USB cable I'm using.
