Does your charger measure internal resistance of the pack? Judging by your description of the single cell being at a higher voltage and then discharging below the rest that would indicate that the internal resistance of that cell would be higher than the rest. Also another indication is that the charge time is short. If that is the case there is not really much you can do about it. If you can charge the cells individually and see what you get and report back.

The Warnings & Cautions discussed in this manual cant cover all possible conditions/situations. It must be understood that common sense and caution are factors which cant be built into this product.

you can remove the bad cell and make it a 6 cell pack. I know that sucks, but it will allow you to still use the rest of the battery.

And then, you can run your e-maxx on 13 cells!(yes, that is perfectly alright) You'll be the only one on your block running a 13 cell e-maxx!

I sent an e-mail to promatch and they say the cell probobly went bad...I'm so tired of bad things happening to me...They say if I send it back they will replace the cell. I hope shipping doesn't cost so much.
