[QUOTE="Wanderer, post: 37195, member: 5235"] The hardcoded period of 10 days is not optimal for sure. I think DJI support wasn't aware that this period is hardcoded on the Spark. However, it can be changed with the Mavic and P4, as far as I know. Fully charged Lipos are under stress. But storing them empty is even worse. So the latter one should be avoided at all hazards. And, as somebody mentioned before, lots of loading cycles also decrease the battery life. So it's a choice between pest and colera - as long as DJI doesn't let us change the discharge interval with the Spark o_O I think for now, the best option would be to charge them to 100% again after a flight in summer time (where chances are good that you're going to fly more frequently) and in winter time, set them to 60% after a flight (where chances are high that you don't fly for a longer period). This would be the best compromise I think. Now (in winter time) I use to fly my batteries to ~60% only, so I can just put them aside after flight and that's it. [/QUOTE]
