I'm kind of bummed out over my twist. I should have made a ticket when I first got the thing because the voltage dial didn't want to budge at first. With a little harder twist, it started moving. Thought all was well and good, so put it back in the shipping sleeve and let her set until I needed to use it while my main battery was charging.
Anyhow, I had to use it the other day and popped my 1.5-1.7 head right off the bat. Now, it could have been ready to go for all I know, but it got me to questioning the voltage. Yesterday, took the multimeter out and tested both batteries at all of the there settings and came up with this:
New Battery:
3.2=3.38
3.4=3.45
3.6=3.85
3.8=4.07
4.0=4.10
4.2=4.46
4.4=4.48
4.6=4.77
4.8=4.91
Old Battery:
3.2=3.37
3.4=3.42
3.6=3.65
3.8=3.82
4.0=3.98
4.2=4.20
4.4=4.41
4.6=4.63
4.8=4.80
I called and talked to Ethan about it, but since it's been well over 30 days since I bought it, no warranty. My lesson learned is, check the voltages as soon as you get it and it's fully charged. If the dial won't turn without a bit of force, stop right there and make a ticket on it for warranty coverage. Just wish I'd of tested it sooner, but being that it's only been used 3 times since I bought it, I didn't bother to check it.
