[NSRCA-dist8] Battery checkers

[Karl Watts]

Do any of you guys or gals use battery checkers?  Are they reliable?  I have one that I use to check my batteries before and after I fly.  For my flight packs – 2 5000 mAh packs it consistently reads 97-99% and after flying 14-33%.  My confusion is when I take a pack that say reads 14% after flying and charge it I am only putting in about 3000 mAh.  Seems to me the battery checker should show 40% not 14%, I used 3000 mAh which is 60% of the pack.  Should I discard the battery checker?
