o obviously, our lipos will never display those numbers now- since there"s no commercial matches now, and dealers can just "claim" a high C rating that cant be verified.

So my question is: would testing a lipo battery for average voltage at a set discharge rate be worthwhile? With my 308 and the software I could do it- but is it wortwhile?
If you are racing spec classes just go 8000+Mah and not to worries about Ave voltage in 6 minutes. the lower Ir is most important
