Sorry to dig up such an old thread, but....

I let my Turnigy packs sit for a few weeks and they had about 3/4 charge, went to charge them back up and one of the packs had a puffed cell and was at 2.14 volts. I brought it back up to 3 volts and then let it sit for a couple hours and the cell went back to normal. Now the problem is charging it without overcharging the other two cells in the pack (its a 3S), since those two cells are now pretty much up to a full charge even though I was balance charging to bring that cell back up to a normal voltage. How the hell to I get this one cell up to 4.2 volts or at least to 4 volts so that it will actually balance charge it (It currently thinks that the pack is almost charged so it does the amperage ramping, but it pretty much stays at 0 amps for about a minute, does absolutely nothing and then says the pack is full).

Is there some kind of way to charge just 1 cell? If I could everything would be fine and dandy.
