Is there a way improve the LVC shutdown - RC-Monster Forums

Resistance (ohms): Enter the LVC internal resistance, 200,000 in this case.
Capacitance (farads): I used 22uF. Other common values for ~25v are 10uF and 47uF, but don\'t provide the right delay IMO, but that\'s up to you.
Battery Voltage: Self-explanatory. Use the nominal battery voltage. For a 4s pack, use 14.8v.
Time Constants to show: Caps are accepted to be charged/discharged in 5 time constants, but if you want to see more detail in the lower time ranges, use a lower number.
Euler\'s number: This is a constant for natural logarithm base. Leave as-is unless you really want to mess with it.

Incidentally, the formulas for finding capacitor voltage at any time (not just during the 1,2,3,4, or 5 time constants) are:

Charge:
capacitor_v = v_battery X (1 - 2.7182^(-t / (R X C)))

Discharge:
capacitor_v = v_battery X 2.7182^(-t / (R X C))

capacitor_v = capacitor voltage at "t" seconds
v_battery = battery voltage
2.7182 = Euler's constant
t = time in seconds
C = capacitance in farads
R = Resistance in ohms
