2s Lipo Voltage Question
 
I have a SMC 6500 MAH 60c 2s lipo battery . I set my LVC for 3.4. After the LVC kicked in, I checked the voltage and one cell was 3.66 and one was 3.74. Is this battery on its last leg? Is it still safe to use? I always put my batteries in storage mode. Thanks

Make sure you charge in the balance mode. Should bring them both back to same voltage.

Yes, I always charge in balance mode. Thanks for your response.

It is normal for the cells to be out of balance when discharged, that is the main reason why you use LVC to prevent any individual cell from going below 3.0V, more info here:
