Anyone assess M2P battery life without flight? Just sitting on the ground?

I guess the title's self explanatory. I don't need to this now, but I was curious if anyone has tested the battery life without the props moving (or better yet, measured wattage while on the ground). Everything on in factory settings, but no flight.
 
I’ve never wanted to know or had the patience to sit and watch it
not with props flying. ?
You try and tell us ?
jk ?
 
I’m using an MA2, a slightly different creature, but I do use it, post-flight, in a powered up state to get a reading of the battery cells in the app with motors off. Then I determine if I need to do something to get them to about 3.8 volts on their cells for storage. When I do this, I’m in my house, batteries have had a chance to get back to room temperature, and I’ve usually got the props already off, with video card sitting in one of my computers to extract that. Shortly thereafter, I try to promptly get my flight data to uploaded to Airdata.com to check for problems. It’s actually kind of a nice little routine now.
