Actually there are quite a bunch of problems. First I have to figure out if the current voltage data can be used at all. My first impression is that it's quite jumpy but may be used after some pre-processing. Now for the doubts you mentioned, this may very well be an issue. I can run some kind of "goodness of fit" estimations to check the quality of my prediction, but this should ideally be ran on a variated sample instead of repeated measurements on my own device, hence I need as much data as possible.

I'm not sure if I understand what you mean here. Can you rephrase?
