( 0 mA/h ) ?? The correct term would be ( 0 volts ). But really Kevin, you do 
need to read up on this, seriously. Other than putting a Nicad battery pack 
in the oven, the WORST thing you can do is to discharge them to 0 volts.
The accepted discharge , which is called Deep cycle " is 1 volt per cell.
For a 4 cell flight pack, discharge to 4 volts.
Not trying to put-you-down, but check into this, Kevin. Your battery packs 
will thank you. :-)
