I know that this is a little off of topic but, is there a way to "deep charge" or fix a bad cell in the IMA battery pack. I now with other types of batteries that have a large series of cell if on goes low the whole pack becomes low. With these batteries you can deep charge or deep cycle the battery to bring the damaged cell up to the level of the other cells in the pack.
