Understanding ripple voltage?

[DrKnow65]

Patrick once again you prove just how awsome you and your company are.

I understand now what the graph is showing and how to quantify the results. I'm glad the packs are doing ok, and it will be cool to watch as they progress.

I'm assuming the ripple shold get better as the packs wear in (new) and then worsen as they age and the internal resistance climbs.

Thanks for putting up percentages, that gives me a good idea of what to look for and it should prove to be a handy tool to indicate the quality of the cells I'm using as I grow an inventory of packs.

We've noticed that Lipos really don't change much at all, until they start to get seriously old, and then they go south really quickly.

You may not notice any break-in at all.

We also have noticed that Lipos are REALLY BAD when they are cold. So you should keep 'em warm before running them in really cold weather.
