I have mine set to auto, and through 5 batteries after my LVC kicks in I notice my 4s lipos still have 13 volts left.

14 months and 22 cars and 2 helis later.....

Remember that battery voltage will drift back up a bit once you disconnect the load, and then a bit more if left to sit for a few minutes. 3.25v at rest unloaded is a bit low IMO. I like to see unloaded cells around 3.5v. So, for a 4s pack, that would be closer to 14v. A higher 3.2v/cell LVC setting helps to ensure that.
