All the cells in both packs had 4.18volts when checked with voltmeter. That blew me away ? These packs are run hard in a Slash once every few months and the packs are stored at full charge for months at a time.
Is that dumb luck or he's super lucky with his packs qaulity ?????

All my packs are the same way , I check them once per year and balance them if needed. I have a range of mostly cheap, budget and many used packs that I bought used. Some of them are very cheap e-bay type packs. The cell match is nice on some, and terrible on others. Cell match has no bearing on cell balance as long as the pack was once balanced. I have a balancer that lives in it's box , and I don't even use it to balance. If ones packs are out by more than .1 volts then something serious is wrong and needs to be investigated.
