Are they two separate 3S packs? What type of charger do you have? Do you have a separate balancer or is it built into the charger?

Are there two balancing taps on the pack or one?

No need for ALL CAPS.

Since I have no idea what you have for charging equipment I'll assume that you have a stand alone balancer. Plug the pack's balancing tap into the balancer. If it is like my Thunder Power Balancer it will indicate if the cells are within .03 volts of one another. If the cells are within the balance range you do not need to charge with the balancer connected. Just plug the pack's positive and negative leads into your charger and charge as a 3 cell lipo at 1 x capacity.
