Used battery Regen to -45A but my battery is rated for 6A charge, 4p would be max 24. Used the -45A setting for 2-3 days, any chance I damaged my cells?

Any chance? I mean yeah, technically there is the slightest of chances.

But nah, you are totally fine. I seriously doubt you even got down to -45A, that’s a LOT of brake.

@b264

Typically the high regenerative charge rates achieved by smashing the brakes at a high speed will be so ephemeral that they won’t upset the cells.

If sustained, a charge rate that high could definitely be an issue. But once you start braking hard, you immediately begin losing the momentum that would be needed to sustain such hard braking.
