Beginners guide to batteries

2.99 is to low id not go lower than 3.2v as the voltage falls off a cliff going any lower.

when you put 5 cells as 1 pack it is as only as good as the weakest cell voltage wise so some cells might have a bit more left in them but only on there own.

so when 1 cell in the pack reaches cut of voltage it will stop discharging the hole pack.

like it only takes 1 cell in a pack of 40 to go bad and the bms stops charging the pack

Right. I don't know how to set the voltage limits

read the manual page 11 and 14 you need to go in to the settings and change the voltage for that type of cell.

if you want to put the cells in storage mode id set it to 3.6v.

Time the 5 cells to see if any charge quicker then the others, the one that takes the shortest time is the timing to use on the others to see what the mah rating would be when they are strung together.
