I have a 3s pack here that got punctured in a crash over a year ago. I sealed up the hole with hot glue, and it actually made it an entire year until the punctured cell completely died - it now measures 0 volts.
I could tear it all apart and make a 2s pack out of it, but I feel like it would be easier and maybe even safer just to put a jumper across that dead cell. If it's truly only producing 0 volts, there should be no reason you can't, right? And before you mention hauling the dead weight of the cell, I'd just be using this 2s pack to power my goggles or my R9 transmitter module.
Once a cell is discharged to 0, it contains no energy at all and could never spontaneously recover... right?
