CellPro 10S IR readout
I've looked through the manual, but I didn't see anything to measuring individual cell IR. Did I miss some thing or is this feature not included? Thanks, |

Mine will give the IR of the individual cells. You can not use the yellow jumper that came with it though and it takes 10 minutes or more of charging before it will read them.

Can you describe the procedure to measure IR of individual cells? Thanks, |

here you go. It takes at least 10 minutes for the value to show up.

Is there a good value for IR or just comparing the values of each cell?
