This is gonna sound stupid question but I have a battery Question.
OK I have a batt pack my friend gave me and it would peak at like 6.83 or something in that area(this is a Sanyo 1300 yesOld ) and I tore it down and it had a dead cell (as I thought) and I was wondering if I could make the pack and replace the dead cell with a 1700 cell

"Smoke" is in your name?
Seriously, I think if you did that, you would prolly wind up with another dead cell in the pack or your charger will flip. Just make a 4-cell for your comm lathe or something.

You can order a 1300 SCR sub c cell from http://www.batteriesamerica.com/newpage3.htm for about $3.00

having one good cell in a pack or a cell with a higher milliamp rating will cause the other cells to overheat when charging. If you try and replace the old cell take the pack off before it peaks by a few minutes or just keep feeling it and when the temp rises noticably take it off the charger. JMO
