I was going to buy a case and foam to custom DIY one. But I am glad that I didn’t do that and bought this case instead.

YA forgot the Kitchen Sink! :)
I try to go as light as possible, For local excursions:
Mavic 2 Zoom
Smart Controller (Sticks On) Neck Strap Attached
Registration and Part 107 certs are on the Smart Controller as well
Batteries - 4
Spare Props - 3 sets
Lens filters
PGYTECH Landing pad
Reading Glasses
When Traveling I toss in the Blue Thing, its a Multi Charger with a built in Power Supply. Other wise I dont carry it.
I havent seen the need to carry a battery back pack as I easily get through the 4 flightbatteries with about 50% left in the controller

I think I have the kitchen sink in there with mine somewhere too!!!! After seeing your charger I just ordered one of those too. If it gets any heavier the case is going to need wheels because I won’t be able to carry it.

you do have the kitchen sink! Pull everything out, that nice plastic case just needs a drain on the bottom! LOL
Im sure you'll like the charger, way faster then the battery dock that came with the Fly More kit. I have the PGYTECH extended legs on mine. The ones that fold so they are always on the Mavic, dont take up any extra space. Very happy with them, makes the drone look more buggy! :)

Yeah, the charger that came with the fly more seems to take FOREVER to charge 4 batteries. That and it doesn’t have the discharge and storage charge capability. Seems like a really good upgrade!!!!
 
In regards to your cumbersome home charger :) ....
I have the same one, as do others here I'm sure. Has anyone been brave enough to see how low the Discharge function will go? It's too bad that could not be pre-set to stop at a certain level. That would then be a Perfect charger IMHO.
Don't the batteries discharge to storage on their own at 2 or 3 days? I use the fstop labs 3 batt charger but that 4 batt looks cooler.

I havent used the discharge but they claim it brings the battery down to zero(0) Ive been in the hobby for ever and never saw any reason to to this. Some claim every 20 charges or so its healthy to completley drain then recharge. Ive never done it and dont plan on doing it. I have my DJI flight batteries set to return to storage charge after 5 days. DJI smart bats discharge to 50 - 75% actully seems a bit high to me. I like to store at 35 - 45%.

yes, the batteries will discharge to storage automatically. you can set how many days before they discharge using the app. I have mine set to 5 days.

Thanks. Yeah I have mine set to 2. I was just trying to ferret out why the discharge on a charging dock was useful. I mean I guess it makes sense to have it as an option but I am not sure I would use it much. :)
