So for this test, you only need to compare a few shots in semi, and see what it reads consistently over a full auto burst.

I might as well order the watt meter now since nobody else in this country keeps track of how many mags they get out of a battery lol
What? No...

Voltage will drop, current will rise to provide the same power (watts) to the motor/system. Up to the point where the battery can't provide enough and then the power will drop.
