sorry for the cofusion im all over the place and still new with the lipo stuff. when i came up with the cell one=1.9, cell two=1.6, cell three=1.5 i was using a handheld voltmeter on the balance plug. both 3s packs had the same readings along with a 11.6v reading through the main power wires. i think the problem is in my charger. i set the charger up for 3s then it checks the battery status and comes up with a 3s load on the charger, if it only saw 2 out of the 3 cells an error message should appear on the screen but it doesnt. if that makes any sense
