What Can I do?

[jalodo56]

Hello I have a little problem, First I am going to put my setups:
Kyosho kanai + Medusa 60mm 2000kv on 4s
E-maxx + neu 1515 3d on 6s

But I have a little problem....... I have a 4 zippy-h pacs: two 4s 5000mha and two 2s 5000mha pacs...... but in mys 4s I have one cell in bad state in my two pacs. I was using in my buggy 4s pacs and 2s+2s and in my monster 4s+2s pacs, What Can I do for use all of my lipos if a need to quit two cells of my two 5000mha 4s packs.
PD: I can´t find new cells 5000mha 20c zhippy-h and now i do not have money for buy more.......
Regards

If the bad lipo cell is just balooning I heard a story about keeping it in the fridge at very low temp to recover it...I never tried and do not suggest it because as we know lipo can burst...but maybe somebody else heard the same story and it can really be done....
To remove the broken cell from the pack is possible too, you have to open the shrinking tape and see how it is connected, just be carefull that if you need to weld the lipos contact you may need a special liquid, sorry don't know the name in english, otherwise welding will not hold.
The 2 4s may be transformed in 3 2s and you drop the 2 broken cells

cheers

You could send then to lincpimp and have him remove the bad cells and make essentially a new battery out of what is left...Shoot him a pm and ask him this same question and see what he says

OK, I can remove the cells easy, I done it in another moment, but I want to use mys 10 goods cells in my two cars....... The lipos 4s works, but the two bad cells always finish a little bit baolling, the cells are bad because its have a little hole in the part above, but the hole do not touch the element only the coverage of the lipo and I put on it a few of glue...........

I can pull the cells out of the the 4s packs and do whatever with the 6 remaining cells. Make another 4s and 2s pack, or a pair of 3s packs, or 3 2s packs, or 1 5s pack.

I have just converted mys lipos to 3s and it works great¡¡¡¡¡¡¡ but I think that I can´t use it on 5s (3+2) in my monster because my motor have low kvs, what do you think about it?
