Pat,
I have an FK'04 so I have a jumper wire, but to help make the cells sit better for my test pack I removed the jumper wire so I have two 3 cell packs essentially. I cleaned the contacts and made sure the solder joints have a good contact area. So my packs are no different then a 6 cell pack at this point. The pack I am testing I put 1000 seconds of charge into it to be sure I had a good test bed.
Thanks for the help,
John
