That is kind of hard to say because I have never hit the cutoff. And doubly hard because I almost never charge the pack up fully again afterward. Maybe one day I will just to find out. (I did that one time, a year ago to find out my amp draw with a different setup (MM/Neu 1512) but haven't tried it with the Tekin.) I've got an Eagletree. I might try it next time out.
The best estimate I can give you is that after 14 minutes of running my Hyperion charger
estimated that I had 33% charge left in my Fantom 4300 4S pack. I don't remember if there was any marshalling needed in the 14 minutes but if so, it was not much.
That estimate could be off as much as 10% since it is based only on resting voltage and I didn't fill up the pack afterward to confirm the amount used.
