So awhile back I did a run test with some L91's. They start out at 1.7 volts. At end of test they were at 1.5 so still plenty left. When I went to use one I only got about 15 minutes of runtime in a light that normally should go for 2-2 1/2 hours. Now the run test I did with them initially was with a Malkoff Dropin and they were in use for like 50 hours. I was figuring that at 1.5 volts they were still basically 80 percent full but think I'm missing something. Did the long drain time just kick there butt or is 1.5 for these cells almost dead? I have used this type of cell for years and didn't think 1.5 was on the low side. I have a decent tester that measures the cells under load so I know that's not it.
