I've been experimenting with the 50mAH cells, and they've been taking 67mAH or so of charge. The 30-40 minute runtime is starting to make sense. I've been charging at 0.5A and it takes about 6 minutes. This makes perfect sense, since the cell is 0.05AH. In order for the controller to charge the cell fully in 45 seconds, it would need to charge it at 4A! That would explode this tiny little cell! As such, the default charge time must only fill the cell a tiny fraction of the way! I'll do the 150mAH test soon, I just need to set up a relay team because I don't have 2 hours straight to spend wearing it down!
