This package just got delivered to me today including the charger, and had them charging for just over an hour now. Are the left and right batteries duds?? The left one has been showing at 250mA, and right one at just under 500mA since putting them in the charger. Also have a 4-piece of f15’s that I’m waiting to charge after these are done.
Ordered these from liionwholesale.com

That’s the charge current displayed, not capacity. I’m assuming this is using automatic current selection? It’s based on IR measurement — which is wildly inconsistent/notoriously inaccurate and can vary greatly from insertion to insertion on chargers like this — so it’s not necessarily an indication of something being wrong.
I’d just set the charge current to 1A manually for these N40s.
Check the chargers manual. It is probably charging two slots faster than the other 2.
mAh = capacity with a time unit (h).
XTAR has a very wonky IR measurement to determine maximum charging current. It does not mean that your cell is damaged. You can try reseating them to get a lower resistance measurement to get faster charging. It sometimes only allows me to charge my Vapcell F15’s at 250mA.
