I am using Hobbycity packs. Normally use a 6s 2650 or 6s 4000. You may want to check your charger settings to make sure it is calibrated if you are getting one cell charging too high.

That happened to me on my 6s packs, I would get one cell over charging about .2 volts. I figured out it was the charger and there was a way to calibrate it.

I checked the manual for my charger (Thunder Power 610C) and I didn’t see a calibration settings. It was actually .25v below the rest of the cells and the charger would have a temper tantrum and stop the charge. My 2s and 3s packs charge fine and are balanced. I also verified the packs condition with a volt meter so the charger isn’t crazy (I don’t think so at least ). The manual recommended charging at .5 amp but I still had the same issue. Because of all this I am fairly sure it’s the battery (just a fluke and my luck). It’s ok though, Mike is taking care of it for me. I can't wait to get my truck running!
