i have some gp3700 packs that ive noticed when discharging they vent a pfft! sound. should i be worried? should i flex charge them as competition electrics says that helps to break up gas bubles?
cheers any advice on venting would be appreciated

Venting is not always bad.....if the cell still takes a full charge, then don't worry about it.....if it doesn't, then the cell needs to be replaced....

In what circumstances do you use flex charge? I notice I get much better results when I use it.


Sorry to hijack your thread but I thought it is probably best to ask here instead of start a new thread.

i am the same when should i use flex charging?

when the cells vent i find they feel very soft and slower during the run, this is more noticable in 19t than mod

Now when you say venting are you saying just the sound, or do they actually pop out a bit of acid? Seems to be becoming a regular occurance with the IB4200 cells here, anyone else having issues?

I have had the same issues with IB 3600's and IB 3800's. Sometimes the cells continue to work well after venting (noise-no acid), other times the cell that have vented eventulla, leaks and and ruins the pack. No rhyme or reason as to when or how often, just what I have experienced.

I just had a brand new Intellect 4200 vent and pop some acid during it's first charge... is this pack done now??
