There seems to be an error with the displayed capacity usage on the VBackup. It alway display the used capacity as 1mAH, despite the operating the heli on the backup (main pack disconnected) until it is fully depleted and the heli disconnects. Noticed using both a VBCT and VBCE

(Please disregard the rescue activations in the log, I set the screenshot switch to my rescue switch)

A very low Value here is indeed normal: In the moment, when the capacitor is defines as fully charged the capacity counter is zeroed. But the charging does not stop immediately, but the current goes down gradually as the caps get charged. So there is always a small amount of capacity that gets counted here. Its shall not exceed a few mAh.
Ah and another remark: The used Energy is counted on the Charge side, so if it is discharged only, it never gets counted. The Current (and with it the Energy) is only measured in the charging path to let the discharge path as clean as possible.

so long ... Uli
