Dying SMC battery
got a pack of matched smc battery for about...1.5 years old, at first it charged out fine 3-4 months ago, but recently, the cell seems to die on me! the peak volt of the pack was around 10 volts and only have about 2500mah in it!
anyway i could revive it? or its a goner?

what kind of 3000? GP or SANYO? your cells are old. just use what you brought over from your home.

i know dead shorting is commonly used for nicad but i had tried with a dying gp3300 with good result. I have a set of dying 3300 , peak around 10V and only about 2800 mah when fully charged. Just like Ranman suggested, discharge the pack and put them on a tray for a few days ( deadshorting the batt individually) , followed this method i was able to bring back my old 3300 to peak about 9.3+- and had about 3100-3200 in the batt..
