Okay so here's a super noob question. I have a protected 18650 cell with the wire leads (Canadian Panasonic 3400mah) and I don't know if it's still good. After finishing my install I have no power and I think my charger is defective but I don't know for sure. How can I check to see if the battery is good? Can you just simply connect the leads to a multimeter? Is that any different than just connecting the battery leads to each other and essentially activating the PCB protection?
