Will OG Mini batteries harm my Mini SE?

[ebarber]

Hello guys, I have recently purchased a DJI Mini SE after my brother crashed my OG Mini ?. I still have the batteries and was wondering if anyone knows if it will degrade the drone. I am fine if I get less flight time, it would be expected since they are 7.2 Li-ion as opposed to 7.7 LiPo. I was just wondering if people have tried this sort of thing and had their drone malfunction and fly differently afterwards.

@ebarber they will work in the drone ,but they will probably take it over the 250g weight limit but if you have registered with the FAA that wont be an issue ,i also believe that the drones performance is slightly reduced because of the way that Li-ion discharge, compared to Lipo's
this will be more noticeable as the battery drops below 30%

If it works it's because it's designed to work.

I also agree with old man mavic. The flight time may decrease some. But should well
