yesterday i plugged the cells back in and instantly the esc starts flashing and beeping at me for lipo cutoff mode.
so i put the cells straight back on my core-udc-20 lipo charger but it just says "warning battery voltage low" 
anybody got any ideas if i can revive my lipo pack without setting off a firecracker in my face??? I was thinking of switching one of the cells with my other working sets of intellect lipos to try and kick start the charge process.
Am I likely to end up in hospital with third degree burns doing that???
cheers

If you have a multimeter, you could check what the voltage for each saddle is. I got one for £3 off eBay, and it's useful for checking batteries.
I've heard of LiPos getting revived by really low voltage trickle charging (presumably by chargers without an LVC). Do so at your own risk!
