I'm switching some of my stuff to 2 cell lipos into a regulator (learned the hard way that you separate the regulator on the OTHER side of the switch from the battery--but that's another story).<BR>The question(s): What is a good, relatively small ESV that has a load to check the lipos? What voltage do you let them get down to before no go?<BR>My 30 year old SO (Ye Olde ESV) ranges just miss that middle ground. I've got a voltmeter--but it's not loaded. On a 1200 pack(still lighter than 4 nicads WITH reg.) on four flights, the drop was from 8.4 down to 8.25V. I'm going to a 780 on another airplane and my understanding guys are getting up to 7-8 flights on that size pack. But how do you check them?<BR> <BR>Thanks,<BR> <BR>Richard<BR><BR>
