Thanks for the information. Can you tell me why this is?You can keep it at 52%. Anywhere between 30-65% is a safe storage level.
It's what DJI recommends.Can you tell me why this is?
If the battery is higher than 65%, it'll self discharge down to 65% as long as you don't touch the battery button. If it's below 30%, you should charge it up until at least the 3rd battery light starts blinking.Also if the battery level is not between 30-65 what should I do?
It sure is. I'm not sure that matters though unless we're sure the OP is using the default setting. Regardless, it's good information for everyone to knowBut isn't the default...10 days?
Deep discharge is recommended after 20 charge cycles, right ?It sure is. I'm not sure that matters though unless we're sure the OP is using the default setting. Regardless, it's good information for everyone to know
They used to recommend it in the DJI battery safety guidelines. However, it's not listed as a recommendation in the current version of that document. In this older version, it recommends the following:Deep discharge is recommended after 20 charge cycles, right ?
DJI seems to think so (or they used to anyhow). As far as I know, all it does it balance out the battery cell levels. If that's the case, then you really should only do it if the battery cells are really out of balance.Can I increase battery life after deep discharge ?
I had no idea a deep discharge can rebalance cells, I have noticed some small deviations develop over time, will need to try that.DJI seems to think so (or they used to anyhow).

They used to recommend it in the DJI battery safety guidelines. However, it's not listed as a recommendation in the current version of that document. In this older version, it recommends the following:
"Charge and discharge the battery completely once every 20 charge/discharge cycles. Discharge the battery until there is 8% remaining power or until it can no longer be turned on, then recharge it to the maximum capacity. This power cycling procedure will optimize the battery life."

I am a real newbie but how do you do a deep discharge ?

Here is what DJI recommends you do:How do you do a deep discharge?
Ok so once you deep discharge you fully charge the battery again?
Yes. It's best to fully charge the battery prior to every flight.Ok so once you deep discharge you fully charge the battery again?
