Hey everyone. I'm new to this and just got a large batch of laptop batteries I purchased from a local recycler. I paid $2 CAD/lb for 67 laptop batteries (51 lbs total), mostly 6 cell but some were 3 and 9 cell and I'm in the process of testing each one.
I have the OPUS BT-C3100 v2.2 and my question is what amperage do you all test with? I'm doing the standard 'charge/test' mode at 500mAh and it's taking a very long time as it will charge the battery to 4.2 and then do a fulldischarge to test its mAh rating.
Do you recommend speeding things up by moving to 1000mAh or more, or do you think getting a second OPUS would be better?
Thanks in advance.
