Tip Of The Week

This year's Tip Of The Week, courtesy of Mark:
We all know keeping are lipos fully charged is very bad for them and they will puff if you leave them.
So I have always used my charger to discharge my batteries. And my flat batteries I charge on the storage charge function.
what I realised only the other day after 3 years of doing it the way above.
is that if I put my 90% fully charged batteries on to "storge charge". it discharges them to a storage charge level.
Not all chargers may do this.
I took it that storage CHARGE would only charge to storage charge level not that it would discharge also to storage level.
This function makes keeping batteries at safe leave really easy. Hope that helps new and old members.
