I have 2 36v 7.5 10s3p battery packs that fit nicely in a plastic food storage container, As it would be waterproof I intend to add a cable gland and run the wires out of the container, However i would worry about combustibility of a sealed plastic case. Would it be safe or would it cause a fire/battery explosion?

OLD question:
Hi I have 2 old chargers i got with a broken ebike i am repairing.
My main question is is it safe to use a battery charger that shows slightly higher than 42v? say it reads 42.8, do battery chargers go bad/voltage creep or is this not an issue if my battery packs have a bms?
I've also made up some 4pin XLR to dc connectors (checked output of charger with multimeter & wired according to battery sellers instructions), how would i go about i use my multimeter to double check the polarity is right? can i just measure the voltage of the batteries charge connector with my multimeter to see the polarity?
I often read of people charging their batteries to lower voltages say 4.1v sacrificing a small amount of range for extra charge cycles, would a simple voltage divider circuit work or how could i go about retrofitting one of my chargers or make a voltage reducing adaptor to only charge to a lesser capacity (41v?)?
I can take some photos and write up a little soldering tutorial on how i solder connectors if anyone would like aswell.
