I just got a new module. These are testing 14.25Ah-15Ah out. I have been using the batts in the ^^ above pictures for some time now, and no loss od capacity or change inIr in the datalog when I put a charge on them.
Here you can see the battery ( one Volt 2250Wh Chevy Volt Module
, how it is designed, and how the cells are arranged in the OEM production. If you wanted to remove cells in a 3p configuration you would want to cut along the inside of the " U-Shaped" bus bars, opposite the side of the tab welds. Right on either side of the little black molded dots ( no deeper than necessary!), then flip the module on its side and "bend" the module slightly against its back to pull the assembly out 3 at a time ( including heater plates and plastic cell casings).
I do not need to do this because I do full individual testing of a cell by cell nature.
As you can see, I do not need to do this, because I am salvaging single cells. I mill the entire U-Shaped bus off until the tab is free.
