VOLTAGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PLATED AND PLAIN CONTACT PINS
Control device used was a Brass Nemesis because of its consistent voltage readings. Everything was used in the same manner with the exception of the different top and bottom contact. The brass contact originated from a plated clone contact with the silver plating stripped off.
The Nemesis silver plated contact was used as the control voltage as that had the lowest voltagedrop.

Low current test:
Silver Plated brass (control) - 0 volts
Brass +0.004
Copper 0
Clone silver plated brass +0.004

High Current Test:
Silver Plated Brass (control) 0 volts
Brass +0.006
Copper -0.001 (better than silver plated brass, but .001 could be human error
Clone Plated contacts +0.003



Updated battery load tests:



I have developed a different procedure in testing batteries. I have made a battery holder from an old telescoping mod to improve consistency and accuracy in testing. A logger is used and samples 15 times per second, and the testduration is 10 seconds.
