Re: [electricboats] One cell out of whack. Replace it or stay with it.

Good luck Peter.

Say, I don't think you shared a diagram of your wiring and so we're pretty much assuming or guessing how things are connected.  If you have one, can you share it?

Thanks.

Thanks for all the responses. Very helpful. Comments and suggestions give me plenty to do to figure this out. Will be working on this over the next few days. If worse comes to worse I have some "extra" cells so if I need to swap out.... I hope it's not the BMS, but I suppose it could be. Just don't know how you could have a BMS where the cells' overload protective settings (3.65v) are triggered, except for one particular cell, which allows that cell to runaway. That can happen in a BMS?
