Hi all,
Not been on here for a while, but I have come into possession of some SAFT VL41M cells. I was told they have been never been used, but there are stickers on the boxes they come in that say Discharged. I've just checked a couple and they are sat at 0.4V. Is there a possibility I can get these back up? My individual cell charger won't do it as it see's the voltage and goes into error! I was thinking of maybe trying my bench power supply, to try and get a bit of life in them, then switching back to my dedicated lithium charger, if they get back up to a minimum base voltage. Thanks in advance.
P.S. Data sheet attached. Although the cells I have, have the same model number they are in a plain metallic case.
