I think I bought the wrong charger

Hi everyone. Firs post, yes I'm a total noob to rc and electronics.
I have the Dynamite Passport P2 charger and a Protek 6100mAh 2s 7.6v 120c battery.
After reading the charger manual it says battery capacities are 100-5000mAh. I'm assuming this will not charge my battery to full capacity. Am I correct?

You can turn that off. Manual says 100watts each channel..so you can get 6.1 amp outa that charger to give you a complete charge in just under a hour . that charger will charge your batteries complete.

there are other chargers for far less than what you bought that 1 for if you have a 12 volt power supply to run charger Id look at theM8 or even M6 chargers..

Thank you for the quick response and info on the charger. I went off the recommendation of a friend who just got me into rc cars. Ill definitely look into the M8 as long as I can return the Dynamite Passport to Horizon Hobby.
