  1. I guess I might as well through this in.
    The DNA200 has a hard cell cut off of 2.85 volts unless that changed with firmware update, I don't know but doubt it.
    Probably the 250 is the same in regards to cut off, again I don't know for sure.
    The 200/250 was designed to operate with a LiPo pack not round cells (18650, ect.) hence the higher soft/hard cutoff.
    18650's, ect have their mah capacity measured between 2.5 - 4.2 volts, a lipo shouldn't be drained down that low.
    So when you use 18650's, ect. with a board designed for a LiPo pack so the capacity of the round cell between 2.5 and 2.85 volts is not usable.
    I set my round cell powered 200's 12% lower than what the calculator comes up with.
    A firmware update listing the round cells would be an option but for sure folks would be using it with a Lipo and that could end up being a safety issue. Call every thing here "just my opinion"
