My preference for checking that batteries are charging is measuring the current going to them, rather than voltage. But that's not always practical, heavy charge can be quite a few amps, and it may drop down to just a few milliamps when (almost) done. That's quite a range to cover with just one meter. -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
