Seaglider Endurance Calculation

How long our Seaglider (firmware 66.12, single 310 Ah lithium pack) will last on a mission. There is no manufacturer endurance tool for it, so the model is fitted to the glider's own energy logs: 1,500+ dives from 2018 to 2022, every device's on-time and current. Endurance is from a full pack, less the reserve you keep.
