Battery Quest-Chion Onie Own ............

[RCShocker]

I have a 7-cell battery pack in which I have had a solder/weld break on one of the battery bars. If I squeeze the pack together I can get a voltage reading on my charger. Let go and continuity is lost but the bar & the battery are still very very close.

My concern is what to do with this pack until I can repair it. Will it build up heat, meaning can it arc at the loose connection or cause any other problems? Will this hurt the battery?

What is the best method to take apart a humpback style pack and make it into a 7 cell sideXside configured pack?

Thanks guys
