All cells acquired, am presently charging-testing individual Lipo cells.
Will do preliminary tests with a 22.2V, (25.2v at full charge), 21.6ah pack, on a 24v bike, (batteries are arranged in 3 cell, (11.1v), "bricks").
After individual charging, bricks will be precisely discharged, any voltage variance between cells, should pinpoint anything, weak, damaged, or substandard, and will be eliminated before "pack" assembly.
Will post pictures and progress reports
