    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    Thanks for your advise. I'm trying to reach somebody at DJI beyond the first responder. I've been very polite and my arguments (I guess) very solid to demonstrate that disregarding the time, there is a manufacture vice on this set of batteries. The DCA is the last resource.

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    Hey dude. Please read the manual, page 22 to 24 and put attention in the part where it says " if you plan to store your battery for MORE THAN 3 MONTHS, discharge it to 30 percent". What do you understand? Can they, accordingly with the manual, be stored for 3 months or more or not? Can you find...

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    Some members are argue that it's my fault because I stored them for a long time (that's not true). Read the manual, page 22-24 and it says "if you plan to store your battery for more than 3 months, bla bla bla". This statement says implicitly that batteries can be stored for 3 or more months...

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    False logic? Well, let's se what mathematics and logics have to say. "If a battery swells after 30 charges and it's used once everyday, then, the battery life is 30 days. As one month has, in average, 30 days, then, the battery life is one month" 1 month=30 days then 1 charge × day ×30 days= 1...

    No problem. I'm posting here because after researching, this is a recurrent defect of this batteries and many customers are being affected. I'm not posting to discuss with anybody. It's pretty simple. This manufacture, design or whatever problem that causes the battery swells affects to every...

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    Wow! Is inspiring your heroic defense of DJI. Batteries were not stored for two years. In fact, they were used four, maybe five times every month. Batteries were not "abused" whatever this mean for you. Batteries were used four or five times each since late December 2020 when I purchase the...

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    I've done it. I've sent photos, screenshots of the battery info taken from the Fly App, I've sent YouTube links of customers having the same issue, including a video who got four Mavic Pro batteries replaced at no charge for the same Issue. I own the DJI care refresh insurance. They have...

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    My responsibility? I said I land around 20 percent. I never said I left them discharged for months. I recharged them after flying and recharge again before flights. Where do you read that I stored my batteries for months? A 100 flights during 20 months average 5 flights a month. Can you post...

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    I said I land with 20 percent. I used to recharge them after the flights. They used to discharge between flights, so I had to recharge them before flying again. And please. Looks like rocket science to handle this batteries! Next time I'm going to build a climatized bunker at home, with...

    Anyway, 30 charge cycles for a battery is a rip off. If one of the 3 would have had the problem, may be I would thought that it was a defective one. But 3 batteries at the same time, no way. If you do some research on the web you'll find that this issue has happened with many other people. It...

    Mavic mini 2 batteries swollen after only 32 charge circles. DJI don't want to recognize that there is a problem with their batteries.

    Well, if you feel comfortable with the fact that your high technology expensive batteries fail after only 30 charges in 20 months and after some reasearch you find out that there are several cases, even with newer batteries, it's ok. For me that's a manufacturer issue that affects not the...

    Mini 2 Battery Firmware & DJI Support problems

    My 3 mini 2 batteries are swollen after only 30 charges. I contacted DJI service and they don't care. They answered with a "loyal consumer" offer to buy them $10 off. I bought the mini 2 8n December 2020 as well as the Refresh Care for a second year. It's a ripoff that batteries last only 30...

    Hi everyone. I got the mini 2 fly more combo in December 2020. The 3 batteries are swollen now. The have in average, 30 charge cicles. It's weird, to say the less, that s high tec battery has on 30 charges of live before failing. If I would have flown my mini 2 everyday, my batteries would have...

    Travel with mini 2 from US to Mexico

    I'm Mexican and live in Mexico. I have never known of somebody arrested for flying a drone. In fact, I know several drone pilots and none of them have ever registered their drones.
