Which RC LiPo battery actually holds voltage best when placed under a demanding load?
In this video I examine:
π 27 RC LiPo battery packs under load
β‘ Voltage retention during a 105A EDF load test
π Cumulative average cell voltage at 10, 20, 40, and 60 seconds
β±οΈ Which batteries can sustain the load the longest
π How quickly different LiPos begin losing voltage
π 3S, 4S, and 6S packs compared using individual cell voltage
π S, A, B, C, and D tier rankings based on overall performance
β Packs that reach the 3.30V/cell cutoff before completing an interval
π A final best-to-worst ranking of all 27 batteries
The tier system is based on where each battery finishes within the entire group:
π S Tier: 89thβ100th percentile
π’ A Tier: 67thβ89th percentile
π΅ B Tier: 48thβ67th percentile
π C Tier: 15thβ48th percentile
π΄ D Tier: 0β15th percentile
Let me know in the comments:
Which battery surprised you the most?
Do you care more about voltage retention or total usable capacity?
Which battery should I test next?
Would you rather see another ranking based on IR, wattage, or another performance metric?

Iβve had Zeee and Povway batteries and experienced the disappointment of their performance. My DXF Gold Series 4S packs feel very comparable to CNHL Racing Series packs Iβve owned, and as good if not better than Gens Ace Redline lipos.
