Hello guys! I have two batteries, maybe 75 cycles each one. I try to storage correctly after a fly, not charging them hot. The battery can be a lottery, but how many cycles you can consider that is a good battery? 150, 200 cycles?

See you soon.

Cool. Yeah, it's a good idea always check the cells voltage, if they are balanced, or even a little difference 0.01V. And storage at a good place.

Mine is totally balanced after 150 cycles but voltage is not reliable IMO

Yeah, the autonomy is not the same as a new one. The same 100% battery charged will have deliver less minutes of flight.

Hello and good day allyssongemelli. Thank you for reaching out and for the inquiry. The charge circle is 300 times under normal circumstances and 200 times under 40-degree centigrade. The battery can still be used if the charge cycle is more than 200 times. The battery's warranty period is 6 months and the Charge Cycle less than 200 times. Actually, the battery life span of your unit, regardless if it's the intelligent flight battery would depend on how you will take care of it. In addition I will post a link where in you can fine the DJI Intelligent Flight Battery Safety Guidelines ( https://dl.djicdn.com/downloads/ ... y+Guidelines+En.pdf ). Thank you and fly safe always.

Cool DJI Stephen, thanks for reply. Good to know, a great reach is 200 cycles. Thanks

Hi.  I’m confused by your answer.  You say “Normal is 300 charge cycles”.  “But if the temperature is under 40c (104F) then you only get 200 cycles”. That doesn’t make sense to me.    What is the “normal” temp so that I can get 300 charge cycles?
