I was going to ask if this was a zippy. One of my packs does the same thing, its a weak cell.

This is one of the most useful tools you can get. I wish Mike would carry them in the store.

Basically plug into balance tap and read the cell voltages. On my one pack, its like, 3.6, 3.62, 2.9 <---- weak cell.

If you have a 5K pack that only lasts 10 min, that one cell kicks it early, drops way low on V and trips LVC.

I like my zippies, but the poor QC is kinda pissing me off. Wondering if they are worth the extra little savings (vs say Neu or something) when they die early deaths. You can replace the cell, but what a pita.
