Battery pack testing.

I just got my new battery pack yesterday and wanted to test it as soon as possible.

It booted up and ran fairly normally. I didn't notice any sort of change in the boot speed or performance. The battery handled everything without a problem.
However, when I ran it overnight using my PwnPi distro, I noticed that every time one of the four lights when out (signalling that it had gone down 25%), something in the battery would reset or lower the power lower then the Pi could run off of. Seeing as it was only $17, it works great as a test battery. I'll look for a more stable battery pack when I get farther with the development.
