edit: it's now in the 12volt range

The voltage that is displayed while charging is the total voltage of the lipo, When a 11.1v lipo is full charged all the cells have a voltage of 4.2v, that's a total of 12.6v.
There's a difference between a person who has a screwdriver and a person who knows what they are doing.

You didn't read my post all the way through, did you? I mentioned that you may see the cells go up to 4.2v, as Nec just said.
