What did you discharge them down to? 3.7V, 3.6, 3.5V? This is ~ 77% ) which would be expected ~ 3.7V roughly 80% of the usable charge.

Just curious. Will probably check mine as well.
Good question! Went down all the way to 3.0V.
 
@Mike-h yes correct. In fact jkflow mentioned it, you probably want to stay close at around 3.7V per cell.

3.0V is the lowest I would go only when testing for full capacity. For science!

PS. Wouldn’t ever do this on my SMC packs 😊.
 
Getting similar results on my lipo.
Discharged to 3.5V (~0.6A load), recovered to 3.6V (this is at best 20% of rated capacity) and by all means anything below 3.5V is not usable.
Boring math:
20% of 2800mAh = 560mAh i.e. I should be able to refill 2240mAh. I got 1940mAh.
So basically it's a ~2500mAh pack. That is outside the industry standard of 5% error on marking.

Volt vs capacity

What's there to think about? You either think you have an issue or not, that is not magically going to change.
File a claim and see how they respond. Just give them a specific symptom and not some facebook bs i.e. long winded stories.

"Loosing signal at x range" (or whatever your symptom is) and let them respond.

Beyond me how anyone would try a speed run without checking the basics, like range, but that is another story.
