I charged the dead cells back up slowly to nominal and then charged the entire battery up a bit, BH suggests that we cycle these 3 to 4 times to get them going again.
Yes, the cells will have REDUCED capacity.
ok I will be need discharge them at around 5 amps, that will be around 200 watt plus.
put more bulbs in parallel?
That's a lot of wasted energy. It would work.
Do you have an inverter? I'd rather discharge the pack doing something useful, not as wasted heat and light.

Agree, I am a tree hugger, I acquired this 48v battery early in summer, I waited to do this now when it is 20F outside, so the heat/light will augment my heating and will not be wasted.
I use to use a fan but the tribe complained of the noise and the draw was too little.
