So I extended my 8.4v 4 x 18650 batteries to 8 batteries. Three of them. 2 packs are fine but one pack has started to feel warm. As to say warm just the other packs seem stone cold and one doesn't. Any ideas?
 
Under what conditions does it get warm?

Does it have protection circuitry (and if so, is that rated for a larger pack)?
 
Under charging the pack Luke warm.
One pack stays stone cold but the other seems like room temp.
 
Hello Chief31,

While warm is basically OK, I would keep an eye on that pack. If possible replace it and break it down to single cells. It is telling you something is a bit off and you should listen.

Tom
