Warm Batteries???

[paulatkin73]

Thanks for the info. Now, please forgive my next question. I'm still a newby at this. When you say "on the screen", are you referring to my smart controller screen or DJI assistant? Also, how many cells are in each battery..just curious. Thanks.

In go4 app, in options you can set per cell voltage to be shown on the screen. Or press on voltage number - it should open battery screen.
Mavic 2 battery has 4 cells.

What about the batteries for the controller or, in my case, a CrystalSky monitor? Do they require special shortage if stored for longer than, for example, 7days?

Same reason why laptop batteries go bad with time. It is only chemistry.

Please recommend best way to discharge batteries and to what level.

The batteries are programmed to self-discharge to the correct storage level.
Just leave them to do their own thing.

THANKS! When it gets time to get my batteries ready for winter storage, I will go into settings and reset this to show, and I will "hover" or fly until they all show 60 percent. I appreciate your help,

There's no need to do anything.

You didn't point out what you thought was bad advice, but the advice I gave was perfectly good advice.
The batteries are Smart Batteries with inbuilt circuitry and programming, unlike the plain old non-smart batteries in the document you referred to.
They are programmed to self-discharge to storage level without the user doing anything.
There is no need to do anything to discharge the batteries - just leave them to do their thing.

it was a bad advice in relation of 'do not need to do anything'. any suggestion that one can keep fully charged lipo cells for longer than 48 hours is a bad advice. will it or will it not self discharge in 10 days time is not relevant.
