So I've got two 3S 2200Mah packs (Zippy and a Turnigy)....one is great and does well, the other not so much. And honestly both, have not had a lot of use. The Turnigy is the one that does not perform well and I think it's been like that since I got the battery...but I just didn't really notice it until later. I honestly don't recall issues in charging it, but the issue is always in discharging or when I put the battery at storage level charge.
See at one point I had all my batteries at storage level charge. Some months later I went back and checked em all again and ran the storage charge cycle again. Most all of them took seconds to maybe a minute or 2 to accomplish. This Turnigy 2200 took almost an hour.
I had heard of internal resistance but don't know a whole lot about it. So I ran the resistance test on my 2200 batteries just to see what results I would get. I attached images of both the Turngy and Zippy results below and there is an obvious difference. So what does this mean? Can something like this be corrected/fixed with use? Should I just discharge and trash the battery? Appearance wise the battery looks fine...no puffiness or anything.
