Linc I'd like your input on this- first off, I was under the impression that the Maxamps 2S 6000 were a 2 cell, they're 4 with 2 paralleled. So my first thought is how the hell can you balance these at all with their setup
So I ran my packs down to about 7.1 on one run- not even close to cutoff, they flatten out enough that it's noticeable anyway but sure enough one is a little swelled- kinda knew it'd come with all the fun stuff I've read about Maxamps, but still it blows- especially considering I had to send 2 packs back a few months apart to GET two packs that were good. The first order one pack was at 4.2v, went back immediately, then a few months went by and the third one wouldn't balance, it was long enough that they felt the need to charge me more for the fourth replacement, so I paid around 3 bills for two packs- don't I feel smart for not finding RCM sooner..... the real issue was fitment in my mute, it was built for 6 cell packs and I had few options, but never again...
Anyway rant over, do you think this is ok to trial run? I charged it up full and it is balanced, but I wonder if it's worth trying. The other thing is these like peckmarks around the perimeter of the puffing, have you seen that alot? And the bottom cell seems very slightly puffed, should I just dispose?
