I agree with Cor's comment on charging versus resting voltage - I mean a
cutoff voltage to be the "resting voltage."

I don't know of a lithium cell that would be carrying significant capacity
at 2 Volts. That voltage would not hurt a Li cell. 2V would be a reasonable
low cut off. Higher gives you more leeway if your are far out of bottom
balance. If you bottom balance to begin with you are safer for a longer

I disagree.
Assuming by your example the OCV of the cell is 3.8v and one charges to 4v.
After cycle 1 the OCV will be 22.8v
After cycle 2 the OCV will be 19v
After cycle 3 the OCV

I'm not a lithium expert, but this sounds like it should work well as long
as your cells
I disagree.

After cycle 2 the OCV will be 19v

Etc.
One can tell if there is a bad cell immediately after every charge because the
OCV will be lower.
Just remember to check each cell periodically to ensure they are staying
together. If one cell is weak it will drift down each cycle and eventually you
will overcharge the good ones and destroy the weak one (this is where fires
come from).
A little exaggerated perhaps but this is what happens,
Thanks David...
for pointing out the forgetfulness factor. Been there, done that. There are a
couple of fairly simple solutions to that particular problem. First, a charger
that is set at a low enough voltage to limit that danger. So far it has been
my experience with this pack that there is
