To Michael,
There are some AQ splitters out there that were wired incorrectly and it sounds like you may have some. Unfortunately AQ no longer sells the splitters last I checked so your choices are to buy some used or make your own. As a longtime AQ/DBS owner, I have purchased a 3.5mm male connector to take measurements of the battery packs when I want to know the true voltage and not rely on the LED on the battery pack. Your local electronics supply should have the connectors available to construct your own splitters if you chose to do so.
On a side note, I own the whole original DBS IC series range including the Sky, Cheetah, Panther, Jaguar and LeoPard phono cable and having experimented with different voltages from 24VDC up to 144VDC, I can say that 100VDC is the sweet spot for all the DBS series of IC's.
Cheers
