Refurbished phantom and battery

[11290]

Do the refurbished Phantoms come with a new battery or is it one that would have multiple cycles on it. Just curious. Could not find on the DJi site, just says accessories checked.

I bought a refurb and it was all new. No battery use and carries their full warranty as the new phantoms.

Same here: battery the came with my refurbished P3S was brand new, nothing (RC/AC/Battery) showed any signs of previous usage.

Thanks, just wasn't sure if they just cycled the returned battery and then reset the smart chip to "0" cycles. Waiting for a bit in hopes of some price drop from DJi or NewEgg.

Good luck! I bought mine last December for $350 from DJI

Same here. $314 refurb from Newegg (directly from DJI), less than a month ago new drone/remote and battery with 0 charge cycles.

I'm thinking what your thinking, I'm sure they have a way to reset the counter to zero, and set the life to 100%.

I bought my refurbished P3S from Drone Nerds.

The battery was brand new and still had the manufacturers orange label/sticker on the end.

Not that a sticker proves much I suppose.
