Each row is one BATTERY, not one owner’s pack: when several drivers test the same battery, the best of their runs is the one shown. S to 4V/8V is the seconds the pack took to fall to 4.0 V a cell under the standard discharge — 4 V on a 1S, 8 V on a 2S; V at 240s is its voltage four minutes in.

How these results are made

Every result is measured by a driver with the RC Discharger app, on their own charger and their own battery, following the RCD test procedure: 1/10 and 1/12 batteries are discharged at 35 A, 1/28 batteries at 4 A. The results are published for information only, as the drivers measured them. We cannot know whether a battery was new or used, in what condition it was (aged, swollen), or be certain that the right battery was picked in the app, and RC Discharger is not responsible for a test made by a driver.
