Hi everybody,

Been creeping ES for a long time, and have never actually had to post a question because I would always find the answer on here somewhere.

Today I am in a bit of a panic. I have been googling like crazy, but thought I'd toss is out here..

I have a 36V cellman 14AHr dolphin or whale type pack, and haven't had any issues since I bought it in 2014. I was charging it a couple of days ago, and my Turnigy watt meter was showing 42.52V, so I thought that was odd, because I'd never seen it charge over 42V. So I unplugged it and never thought too much about it.

That night when I powered up the pack and watched it over a few hours. It was all over the place, until it seemed to settle out around 38.5V.

Today I powered it on and it was showing 53.34V!!! and climbing!.. up to 58V and I turned it off, put it in a heavy roasting pan and placed it outside. I've been checking and it is now showing 48V

Any help is very much appreciated
 
First check your charger output then your battery. Never over charge and don't run to lvc as the rule. Keep something in the tank.
Wow can't believe it my name up in lights.
