[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 497300, member: 3438"] For those with LiFePO4 batteries, how are you storing to the recommended 50% charge level? I haven't been doing that. If I have two days of fishing on the LiPO battery, I'll recharge it to full when I get home. It would seem to take allot of monitoring. If it is above, running it down to 50%. If below, charging to only 50%. Drone batteries I have, if charged to more than 50% will start a slow discharge after sitting for two weeks, and stop at the 50% level. I am not aware of a BMS that does that. At a minimum, it sounds like I should change my charging regement for the LiPo to the night before a fishing trip. Only do partial charge if battery is "low".
