Your data looks skewed, How do you get more out than you put in? Charge and discharge look reversed.
Or your charger is giving you bad information.
You put in 1300 mAh and got out 1500 mAh, those are incredible cells, I'll take a case of that kind.
What were your charge and discharge currents? How many servos in the plane?
If you would like to send me those cells, I can check them out on my equipment and tell you how good they are.
My guess is that those cells are find, you data is inaccurate but consistent.

Hi all,
I got myself an old (but "new: never flown) Stratos F3B. It came with all servos, receiver and battery. The battery consists of four Sanyo KR-1400AE 1400mAh, yellow colour with red letters.
To be sure, I soldered new wires on the battery and cycled it 5 times on my Robbe Infinity 2; these are the results:
Cycle 1: Discharge: 1178 Charge: 1338 Cycle 2: Discharge: 1505 Charge: 1359 Cycle 3: Discharge: 1512 Charge: 1368 Cycle 4: Discharge: 1515 Charge: 1387 Cycle 5: Discharge: 1520 Charge: 1385
Can I consider it safe to use this battery ? The seller had no idea how old it was. I realize the safe way is to get rid of it, but could I risk using it in a "lesser" model (like e.g. an old glow-engine trainer) ?
Thanks, Stefan.
