I'm sure you know this, but measure voltage in parallel with the pack, but current in series with the pack. Not trying to insult your intelligence, but I've seen numerous cases where someone attempts to measure current by placing the leads in parallel to the load. In case you don't know, a meter has a VERY low resistance (just enough to measure a tiny voltage drop to calculate current) and that basically shorts out the supply.
