Default Question on my charger?

My Eflight 505 when its done charging can it display the stats of the batt? When its charging it tells you how much it put in and volts. But can it tell what I started with (amps)? So if its a 2400 and I put in 1000 during a charge it should be 1400 to start. I just want to know if the batt holds what it states it does.

Default RE: Question on my charger?

The voltage can be checked with battery just setting there. It can also be an indicator of remaining capacity if it's a LI type battery. A NI type battery is much harder to tell when just settting.

You'd have to start a discharge function or use the battery out first for real accuracy. Read voltage at the start of the discharge and then read the capacity at the end of charge or at end of discharge..
