Cool, I hope the new battery works properly, and improves your Spektrum experience. My experiences with Horizon's warranty (a long time ago) were positive, thankfully.
It's still a weird concept to me that this sort of difficulty can only be addressed by the charger. And if the charger refuses to help, you're kinda stuck.
With a traditional charger, you have more options available, different chargers can provide different amounts of balance bleed current, and you can also read the balance lead voltages directly. Plus you can try a different charger.
Whereas with these, the balance electronics are buried in the pack, and either work properly, or they don't. Hopefully they keep working correctly! A friend just got Spektrum smart packs (G1 and G2), and the S2100 charger. He likes all all of them so far.
