Hello all
I want to sell two of my 1dx bodies. I have 4 batteries, and obviously do not want to give away the best batteries.
Is there a way to find out the battery HEALTH??
I know how to calibrate and check charge status, however I could not find anything that would tell me about the battery health.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
always good light

Greetings,
I would think an ohms meter could be used to help identify the better 2 of the 4. You'll have to check them over a few days to get an average.
My R5 C has a little meter (in the battery menu) that tells me the general health of a battery. Its different than the actual power remaining. I don't know if this is included on the 1Dx series. I'm sure one of our 1Dx Series owners will reply here 😃
