When I press the discharge button, it lasts only for about 3 minutes, then the charger goes to the charging mode. Why isn the charger discharging my battery pack?

The first 3 minute of the discharging is the “surface charge” which is explained above. If after the first 3 minute, the discharging terminates and goes into charging, this means the battery pack could not be discharged due to a diode protection. Diode-protected terminals, which are generally referred to as the “drop-in charging terminals” can be used for charging but not discharging. To resolve the issue, you should use the “discharging contacts”, metal plates that your device uses to drain power. On a two-way radio, for example, the discharging contacts are the radio-end contacts.
