The best solution will be to set up a charger that charges each cell based upon it's own needs or go through the long process of balancing with the stock unit. We were getting close on ours a couple weeks ago and lost another dc/dc.
I am working on a charger upgrade now.

Like I said though, I let the balancers run overnight. They were actually done balancing before I went to sleep, but I didn't have enough time to charge so I just let it sit.
After break in, do these cells tend to smooth out and become not picky?
I agree the best solution is individual chargers, but as you said the price is prohibitive.
