    It is sounding that the auto charge shutdown is built-in inside the cell. Do the cell look any different ?

    Jack mentioned that the upgrade is coming in 2 weeks; I wonder how that work with existing shipped cells ? may be it is something bolt-on to each cell ??

    The overcharge protection is internal to the cells. They do not look different.

    The upgrade is something else. It is a new battery balancer that is coming soon.
