Not sure if that would be adviseable. Easier (and safer IMO) to just remember that the display will read 0.2v lower than the actual voltage, until it gets down to under 3.5v.

I still haven't experimented with the range vs voltage part yet. It would be nice though as no balancer, regulator, or lvc (use radio warning) would be needed. Also, if there is a linear regulator in there, you have to consider the drop-out voltage.
