What is the point of the firmware? It does not implement cell balancing, and no instructions are there to solder resistors to actually allow cell rebalancing.

- cronix 4y ago> 4. Rather than letting an unbalanced pack naturally result in lower usable capacity, when the cells go moderately (300mV) out of balance (by design, see step 3) Dyson programmed the battery to stop working...permanently. It will give you the 32 red blinks of death and will not charge or discharge again. It could not be fixed. Until now. > By using this firmware, your battery pack will not become unusable if the cells become imbalanced, you will just have reduced battery capacity as usual.
- sebazzz 4y agoWell, perhaps it is a bad idea to let unprotected lithium batteries get out of balance.
