I checked packs voltage after charging and they are a little bit higher than the max 4.2 volts per cell (cells meaure 4.262 volts per cell). Does overcharging cause Lipo packs to swell? Are my Venom Lipo packs permanently damaged? Thanks?

From what I was reading you should NOT use the pack any more.
