Battery Testing Finally Completed (12th April 2014)

And by completed I mean:-

1) Ran every one of 72 x 5S1P cell packs through a discharge (to 3.5v) and graph test using the Powerlab8 Battery Workstation
2) Checked all the graphs to see if any cell packs were out of balance, made a note of the ones that were for additional test
3) Bottom balanced all Cell packs to 3.8v (Storage charge)
4) Checked all cell packs physically for any signs of swelling, (Weirdly every single one looked fine until the very last discharge test on the very last cell pack which swelled up like a balloon)
5) Ran all cell packs that failed first test through a balance charge (to 4.2v) using a BC 108 balance charger
6) Ran all cell packs that failed first test through a second discharge (to 3.5v) and graph test using Powerlab 8
7) Checked all graphs to see if any cell packs were still out of balance, Discarded any cell packs that were (5 were!)
All that lot basically took me 6 weeks of spare evenings to complete!
