Unfortunately, the capacity indication given by the meter is inaccurate and way to optimistic. E.g. the meter indicates 54pcnt remaining capacity on a 4 cell battery at 14.6 volt when measured unloaded. The nominal voltage of a 4s battery is 14.8 volts and in my experience there is not much left when the unloaded voltage gets below that. This is confirmed by lipo voltage-capacity curves that indicates approx. 20pcnt remaining capacity at 3.7 volts per cell.

So sorry, I can't really recommend this one.

It is a little inaccurate with individual cell counts, keeps beeping me saying over charged, checked with multimeter and all OK! Great for fuel gauge feature.

Love this thing. Does feel pretty cheap and wish it didn't beep at me like crazy when I check a full battery. Still a must have item.

Highly inaccurate. Any used LiPo irrespective of cell count is shown to be at 62pcnt charge. Comparing the charge level with the cheaper DLUX meter gives totally different and true readings. Buy the cheaper item - if it ever comes off Backorder.

Works as described but seems kind of flimsy, not sure what I was expecting but for the price I thought it would be made better.

This is a fairly large device. It has a big window as a result, making it very easy to read. Plus being backlit, it can be seen in daylight when at the field, quite easily. The "fuel gauge" is a hoot!
