I had 3 cells that shown no voltage at all or being recognized in my charger, found a tutorial on how to reset the CID on a 18650 cell and that worked for me.
Lowest voltage was 1.0V and highest 4.05V ( second 3.0V ).
These cells are quite old, let's say about 8 years old.
Charging all of them up right now, where the VP2 take ages to get the 1v cell up to atleast 2V ( Reviving mode ? ).
I know it's not smart to do it, but just wanna try if it holds atleast 1000~1200mah capacity.
Who has done this trick before by pushing in the CID with a pin ?
I'm just curious why it did trip the CID, i don't see any damage or electrolyte due to possible venting. Never seen any traces of that when extracting the cells.
Cells are CGR18650DA
