It weights... well... yes, nothing  It costed 15 dollar!
And yes it jumps like hell because it's awesome light! And I get a runtime of 15+ minutes. As you see in the graph I was at 13:30 minutes or something and I used 1050mAh of the capacity. |
Going under 3.0V/cell on a Lipo is not good at all. You'll shorten the life of the battery at a minimum. While you may be getting away with less battery, you're certainly not promoting a long lifespan of the battery running the way you are. IMO, it's just not safe to run a battery in application where it will be routinely subjected to currents beyond it's burst rating.
Also, IMO, if the Lipo was an optimum choice for the application, it should not drop consistently below 3.5V/cell until nearing the end of the run.
