Hi. I was wondering what the usual voltage a 2 cell Lipo is at for each cell when it runs out of power. Also, what is the usual voltage for a 2 cell Lipo when fully charged for each cell?
Thanks!

You don't want to run a LiPo below 3 volts per cell. So it is best to stay at 3.2 minimum. I usually set my low voltage cuttoff to 3.4 just to be safe.

A LiPo battery will charge to 4.2v per cell when topped off. You can push it to 4.21v just to make sure each cell is completely topped off, but I wouldn't go past that.

Storage charge them to 3.8v per cell for storage whenever you finish running them.
