All of them has swelled a bit, but can't noticed when they are resting. And the other MA lipo has gone a little fluffy.

I was planning to reconfigure two 2S 4000mAh packs to one 2S 8000mAh, but could it be that it is just as good to just run the two packs in parallel instead? Are there any issues related?

I do have the possibility to charge the two packs as if they were one (Hyperion EOS0610i DUO). That probably helps too...

Your best bet is to run them in parallel. When you start building packs 2p. the cell pairs can become unbalanced and hurt the pack without you knowing... With both packs in parallel you can monitor each cell individually

I actually did!

Anyways, the "good" pack is fine. I would say that you may want me to replace the main leads with some new 12 gauge wire and reinstall the traxxas plug. The wires are way too long on both packs, and have some wear on the insulation.

The "bad" pack does have 2 dead cells, but the other 2 look fine.

So between the 2 packs you have 6 4000mah good cells. I can make you any combination of packs that you use 6 cells total. So you could have a 6s 4000, 3s 8000, a 2s 8000 and a 2s 4000, etc...

So let me know what you would like!
