VOLT Battery Breakdown to Cells

So I have finally gotten around to taking my "bad" pack and breaking it down to individual cells. Please note I bought this battery very cheap as someone had accidentally taken a sawzall to the middle of it and damaged/cut some of the cells. However most of this pack is still intact and ve...
