I could never find the time to build a hard casing for my 14s triangular battery, so just had it in my backpack for the time being. Recently fallen off my bike and damaged one of the cells. Happy to say that I did not become crispy chicken... From visual inspection only this cell was visually damaged, but gonna have to do more tests to see if excessive vibrations have damaged the rest of the cells... Hopefully not.
I used side flush cable cutters to cut the nickel strip and lighter fluid to dissolve the hot glue holding the cell. Now gonna have to order some replacement cells and redo the connections. Discharging the damaged cell slowly so that i could safely discard of it.
