Question about end of life battery.

Hey guys! So I got my first mod with removable batteries 2 months ago! The RX200S..... LOVE this thing! But I was wondering, is it dangerous if one battery starts to reach the end of it's life before the other 2? What happens in that scenario? Does the mod tell you about the imbalance and refuse to fire, or does it put extra load on the other battery causing a dangerous setup? Thanks! Also, when do you know it's time to just get new batteries?

I still have batteries from 2011 working.
Maybe due to the amount of batteries I have none of them have reached their EOL.
As for the mod notifying you, I don't think any of them do but I can't know them all.
On the extra load going to the more charged batteries;
YES, that is definitely what happens and it puts more stress on them.

I know the RX200S has a built in thing that says imbalance and I think the threshold is something like .3 difference. But if the other batteries take a higher load, then the mod probably wouldn't say anything. In theory, it could make your setup dangerous? How do you know when one of em is dying? I actually only have 1 trio of batteries, these things get drained and charged drained and charged, I'm looking into getting a second trio.
