Default Fried a set of IB3600

Completly mullered a set of Integy VESC IB3600's at the weekend.!!!

Used my pro-trak as normal and charged a set of IB3600 a few days ago.

Thought I would re-peak them for use on the bench as a test at 0.08v cut off on a protrak charger after they had been sat for a few days fully charged.

Came back to find them poping and fizzing! instead of the charger switching off!

I guess you should never re-peak these IB3600 cells or use at least with a cut off much less than 0.08v or something.

I have been racing 15 years or more and never managed to fry a set of batteries before now.

Anyone else found this?

I had only run the cells once before! B*ll**ks!
