I only have my DJI Phantom Vision 2 for a year and a half.
Got it with one battery inside the box and purchased the second one right after.
Today both of my batteries are no longer good for flying.
They keep my phantom flying from 100% charge down to 60% when from there it takes no time to get the third and last battery low voltage warning on my I phone. I was lucky to test them out before this season just by hovering at low altitude so I had enough time to land without crashing. If I was at 200-300 feet up I would have no time to land....
This 2 batteries always charged with original out of the box charger. I do not see the benefit of smart chip inside, balance is out of wack big time!!! They calling it smart chip.... I call it crap chip.... Or better yet destroy in time frame chip...
I also think 30 times charging is not even close to what high quality battery should take before crapping out.
I am in high performance fast electric boats where the electronics are kicking the crap out of the batteries and the worst I ever remember on cheep HK batteries was 2 seasons, sucking them out way below LVC.... Still have them running my 2S2P boats without problems...
I am very disappointed with these batteries. On the same time DJI is saying never to purchase aftermarket batteries.
Here in Canada new one is $190.00 with tax and I had to purchase another 2 to keep flying 2015 season... How dumb this is...
Near $400.00 jut to replace 2 batteries.... Thanks DJI for making your money every season on Lipos....
