No, Danny's result came from not using the voltage sensors which CE specifically advocates using. With the leads attached, either side of the charge connector, I'd bet the voltage would not have exceeded spec. No need to "tweak" anything if the unit is being used as-designed and as-instructed.

What is being done here is experiment and you HAVE to understand that before condemning either battery or charger. Danny, for better or worse, is headed out of school and seeing what lies out at the edge.
