IMO, Heat is the main indication of efficiency losses.

It takes power to create that heat, so there goes some of your battery pack's power. It was used to make heat, not motor power.

Resistence isn't only found in the wiring, but also the other things that I mentioned.

Those others also produce heat as a result of losses, even your Lipo Pack.

If it gets hot, it is using energy to become heated.

Heat is energy.
