New Swytch Max kit that loses most of its power after 15km on a normal ride

Pretty much all stated ranges for X bike this or that is with minmal power and good rider input , problem is if they used a rider to calculate range they wouldn't be your average casual cyclist.

 

They don't say it's on planet Earth or where on planet Earth.

You measure the voltage on the charge port, not the discharge one, since they are connected directly to the battery. Your video isn't clear, but it doesn't look like you used both the charge connector pins, which are the middle two. You should measure immediately after charging to show the condition of the battery. You don't need to short any pins. There is no danger.

 

The outer pairs of pins work as a switch to switch on the output when connected to the battery holder. They're not needed for charging nor measuring on the charge port.

Why don't you read the voltage on the discharge / output port when it is turned on? I have always done that, and it is also the way that any voltage measurement on the LCD measures the voltage.

Because it's not turned on until you connect the battery to its holder, and when it's connected to the holder, you can't get your probes onto the terminals.
