"Fully Charged" for how long?

[Chezedog]

How long does a stock battery remain close to fully charged after charging?
Will a battery charged 24 hours ago have the same flight time as one charged a few minutes ago?

I have not noticed any difference in charging the day before.

Even if your charge settles it wont be enough to notice. Now doing 24 months might have a different result.

I've noticed that they hold a charge pretty good.

*BUT* , keep in mind that if you're not going to be flying/using that battery for more than a week (or longer), you don't want to keep it at full charge. - or it will lessen the life of your battery.

It's ideal to keep Lipo's stored at 50%, in a nice cool environment if you want them to last as long as possible.

Thanks for the info. Uh, how does one know the percentage of one's battery charge?

For that you would need a charger that displays battery status or you can purchase a lipo voltage meter. I would recommend a better charger so you can charge you lipos quicker and also be able to put them in storage mode which is basically at 50% charge. Definitely a good investment.

I see. Do you prefer any particular brand/model?
