| Apr 5, 2016 at 5:24 | comment | added | Alex Sky | @Filek From my understanding, this is the method Tesla, and others employ to prevent an internal short or over-discharge of a single cell from effecting the other cells in the series. Although Tesla's are non-resettable from what I have read. | |
