Yes I do understand that, I've been saying from the start I didn't think they'd warranty it

You guys do make a lot of good points. Like I said before the main thing that gets you is you have to agree to all the terms and warranty requirements by default. I could argue all day with them but in the end I agreed to the terms.

EDIT: I wanted to mention that by my own stupidity I told them (in the RMA form) that I had cycled the battery. I didn't look at the lipo warranty info until after sending the form, again my own fault. But it's like how else was I supposed to prove the pack had a bad cell? It's that catch 22 situation again. Gotta charge to prove the need for a return, but charging voids any chance to return. If I told them I didn't cycle the pack they would ask how do I know there is a bad cell.

Oh well, I'm going to do a few cycles later tonight on lower current and see if I can get the one cell to balance up. I can set my iCharger to the most accurate balancing along with enabling trickle balancing, so it will take a long time but hopefully will give some improvements. I would be happy if it even got within 30mA of the other cells.
