Bought a Phantom 3 Advanced on E Bay looked ok, my first concern was the battery seemed to drop voltage a bit too fast, was only in the House, from 100% it would drop to 97% after a couple of mins, made a video of it if anyone has the time to look at it.

The battery had been charged two times only, i enclose some photos maybe that will help.

And lastly from time to time i get battery error messages coming up briefly, like incorrect battery they go away after a second.

I received a message from the seller asking for feedback for the item only had it a couple of days, makes me wonder whats the rush.

Video is private.
 
Your video is 30 minutes and the battery went to 89%. I would guess that is fairly normal usage. I' d have to try the same test to verify.

That looks okay to me. You definitely have an OEM battery.

You're the last one that I would question but are you sure OEM?
I have 7 batteries and they're all DJI and written in English.
I always look for the Phamton 4480 mah on the front.
The op's battery is almost all Chinese and says Dogguan Amperex technologies
This is an OEM battery,

The finish on the silver plastic doesn't look correct. Could be the low res pic I guess..
Battle of the OEM batteries.:)
That was the original battery from my new P3A in a sealed box.
The others were from hunch selling OEM batteries and they all look similar to my original.
I have a crappy cell phone for pictures
