Mavic battery problem

[1buddyc]

Well I forgot about one of my Mavic batteries and had left it in my desk. Barely had 6 flights on it, last time I remember using it was 3 or 4 months ago.
Now, no lights when button pushed and will not charge.. Any suggestions on bringing it back to life or is it bricked?
Any info is appreciated

The battery is probably in hybernation mode. Did you try leaving it on the charger for a longer period of time?

Left it on for a few hours, got no lights or anything else when I pushed the button.. How long would you suggest? And it did feel kind of puffy when I took it off the charger.

RIP battery.

Coming out of hybernation may take a few minutes before light starts blinking; a few hours doesn't sound good. Call DJI, see what they say.

The battery is gone... It's started growing crystals already and could explode. Dispose of it safely

Good reminder for all of us to monitor our RC batteries better. I have several, for my other RC airplanes, just sitting on the shelf while I have been playing with my MP all summer. I will check them out today.
