Is it trashed ? My battery ?

Idle curiosity what does ya other battery say on both the charger & the checker?
Anyone else around you can throw battery onto a charger & checker to see if results are same?

Just thinking it could be checker playing up rather than battery.

Don't forget . . . "It looks puffed".

Trash it.

I guess it makes sense to say bye bye to it. DAMN.

It happens.

Are you familiar with how to discharge that thing and dispose of it? There are several methods out there. Check Google/YouTube.

I usually save the connectors/wires.

(In fact I have a 3S to do today that my Dad left in storage at full charge and it's puffed.)

Do you have a volt meter you can check each cell directly? If you're getting different readings between charger & checker, one is wrong. I know the cheap warning buzzers are almost always off a decent amount.

The best way to test is with a internal resistance (mohm) meter, the second is a slow charge to max like you did & discharge it with some light use. If they end up more than 0.05v off (same tester as when full), it's definitely defective to some degree.

Yes I can read thank you, what I can't see is any useful pictures.

I've got puffed lipos, they've been that way since about their 3rd run. Not blown up like a balloon, that'd be effing stupid, but a little puffed none the less.
They doesn't change charged or discharge, don't get hot charging or running & all cells match same so discarding them based on an arbitrary description of "puffed" is more than a little silly.
