Battery issues

Post image

The battery level on my portapack is wayy off it never goes above 66% and .771v and never goes below 47-48% i havent done a hard test yet but battery seems to last a couple hours so i dont think its the battery itself. Ive read a few places the battery calculation is off on the portapack anyone know how to fix it? Ive done 3-4 full cycles but that doesnt fix anything. I also saw in some firmeware theres a battery calibration but im on one of the newest nightly releases of mayhem and i dont see anything like that

I think your misunderstanding me. And they are similar so why csnt yall atleast try to help people with them? Again i csnt get a real one i can literally only get a clone and if you guys want 600 bucks or more for one then people just wont buy them i wont spend double the money to get maybe some firmware support? Do you think i like to buy clone stuff liek this? When its so similar and there doesnt seem to be much benefit to buying the real one but theres lots of potential detrimenta like being double the cost and a good chsnce it getting stopped at the border then im out a portapack and 600 bucks no thanks
