What is the lowest voltage of a discharged li-po battery?

[zeturi]

Would someone please take one of their 3.7v cells, drain it till it's dead, and measure the voltage for me? I don't have any li-po batteries to test with, so if someone would try I'd be very appreciative.

This PCB stops charging at 2.3V, if that helps.

edit: discharging

I need to know an approximate voltage of the actual cells. Reason being, there's a project I'd like to use two li-po cells in, but I need to be certain of their lowest voltage. They should work fine most of the time, but I need their dropout voltage to know if they'll last as long as their capacity allows.

Thanks for the help, though.

Problem is, Li-po cells will discharge all the way to 0 volts. The 2.3v mark is generally agreed to be the low end cut off point. any more than that, and you risk damage to the cells.

Sheeaht. Well, guess I'll have to use a 11.1v combo. Thanks for the help guys!
