As we all know, the batteries used by the Mavic are "smart", in that they can:
The batteries will get cozy warm during their pre-set automatic discharge - I was going to fly the other day, and noticed my Mavic was warm when I took it out of my bag. Having recently changed my discharge timer to 3 days, it had kicked in earlier than I am used to and started not long before I left the house.
If users were able to force-start that discharge or - even better - start a warm-up cycle, it would go a long way towards protecting batteries with a low-discharge period that warmed them up before use.
DJI - can you add a function to the battery firmware to offer a warm-up option?
- Monitor themselves, including current, voltage, temperature, etc.
- Detect and interface with devices, and supply that information to them
- Discharge themselves over a period of time automatically
- Know when they're outside normal temperature range, and adjust operation (refuse to charge if too hot, etc)
