Having requested information - this is the reply, I have not copied the last part which is just repeats of manual texts.....
It appears from this wording that the Warranty is 1 year or 200 cycles, NOT battery life. The wording does say 'if it fails after .....' giving impression that battery life is not fixed at the 200 cycles. To try and fix at 1 year anyway would be impossible as no one can predict shelf time at sellers.
Therefore I assume that someone in the past has misunderstood DJI cycle statement and started this 200 cycle life myth.
"Dear Nigel,
Thank you for contacting DJI NL Support.
In regards to your query on cycle life of the Intelligent battery, these are good for 200 cycles or 1 year or which comes sooner. In the event that the battery fails within these period, we can execute a repair for the battery (if not physically damaged or swollen). If the batteries went faulty after the given period, then we will advise valued customers to purchase a new battery which will have a fresh 1 year/200 cycle warranty.
As these are intelligent batteries, the battery LED indicator will show as to how much charge these batteries have."
I did ask if the counter can be reset in event battery is still good - DJI of course replied 'not possible'.
