More expensive chargers you'll have proper charging wires to push current through (ie. My $50 Turnigy charger setup could probably push like 10Amps if I wanted it to but I'll usually just charge it at like 2.8Amp) the main wires and then when it's about finished will "trickle charge" small amounts of current through the balance connectors to balance them.
Your charger just charges at a low rate (650mA).

Mine doesnt have any functions at all. you plug it in, a light shows up, and thats it.
