LOL all my "good" (expensive) packs have either gone out of balance (and needed a few cycles of charge/discharge or individual/1s charging to get them back) or swollen to destruction after a year or so in use (or in one case within a week.)

So I just use cheapish packs and plan/budget for semi regular replacements. (Gens Ace and Nanotech)

And FWIW I always balance charge.

(Currently using an RS16 and the dedicated power supply, the charger actually failed last week, the shop has already replaced it at 18 months old with no questions asked)
