I have had a couple of people ask me how many mAh I use during a flight or "put back" when charging a lipo. I also recently saw a space in a log book for listing the mAh consumed during a flight.

My BC6 tells me the amount voltage remaining in each cell of the lipo battery at the beginning of a charge cycle (e.g., 3.87V) and at the end of the charge cycle (hopefully 4.2V).

I use 3-cell 2100 mAh and 6-cell 2200 mAh and 2600 mAh lipos. Is there a way to determine or calculate the mAh I put back during a charge cycle?

During the charge cycle the bottom lower right of the display tells you how much was put back in the battery..
